The Connecticut/Western Massachusetts Chapter of the Society of Industrial and Office Realtors recently held its summer meeting at the Pine Orchard Yacht and Country Club. A regular business meeting was conducted, attended by over 30 chapter members. This was followed by a cruise aboard the Sea Mist on Long Island Sound, touring around the scenic Thimble Islands. Braving stormy skies and seas, many members and a few guests joined in the cruise. Despite the rainy weather, a good time was had by all networking and sailing around the historic and picturesque Thimble Islands. The Sea Mist returned safely to dock, and dinner was served to members and guests at the Yacht Club. HABITAT FOR HUMANITY The Chapter will be sponsoring another Habitat for Humanity volunteer day July 26th in Bridgeport.
