President’s Quarterly Report – October 2019
Dear Fellow Members:
It’s hard to believe we’re in the final few months of 2019. As I look back on all NAIOP has accomplished this year, I couldn’t be prouder of this organization. We truly have the best members and volunteers who work hard every day to deliver the industry’s top programs and events, and we’ve got quite the line-up to finish out the final quarter.
The community service committee has been hard at work helping to ensure we are giving back to the place we all call home. Thank you to everyone who donated school supplies at the August monthly breakfast. The students and teachers at Howard E. Hollingsworth Elementary School were very grateful for all your generous contributions. The committee will also be hosting a food and supply drive at the October Monthly Breakfast benefiting Helping Hands of Vegas Valley. View the donation list to help support low-income seniors in our community.
A huge congratulations are in order for the twenty-one members who were selected to be part of the Developing Leaders Institute 2020 Class. Acceptance into this program is a major accomplishment and we’re all excited to watch these young leaders take their careers to the next level. We have no doubt they will make an impact not only within our organization, but throughout the entire community.
NAIOP’s third quarter events are sure to bring the entertainment. Oktoberfest, NAIOP’s social event of the year, will take place Thursday, Oct. 3 at Hofbrauhaus Las Vegas. This is a great opportunity to bring a guest and introduce them to our organization. As is tradition, expectations are high for this year’s costume contest. On Thursday, Nov. 7, the Annual Bus Tour will be “Flying High” at the Veil Pavilion inside the Silverton Hotel Casino. The three-hour bus tour has a dynamic line-up of office, industrial and retail properties throughout the valley. You won’t want to miss this NAIOP member favorite. If you aren’t registered to attend, you are welcome to come and pay at the door.
As we look ahead to 2020, the election committee has assembled a slate of candidates for eight open positions on the NAIOP Board of Directors. An email will be sent out in the upcoming weeks with ballot information. Please take the time to cast your votes and let us know if you have any questions.
Finally, I’d like to thank all our members, Board of Directors and sponsors for volunteering their time and financial support to our Chapter. Your daily contributions make NAIOP one of the leading organizations in Southern Nevada.
