SIOR
Announces 2008 Kickoff
Event
The New Jersey Chapter of
the Society of Industrial and Office Realtors (SIOR)
will host its 2008 Kickoff Event on Jan 31 at Liberty
House Restaurant, located inside Liberty State Park,
Jersey City. This year's theme will be "Giving
Back To The Community". with speaker Omar Minaya,
manager of the New York Mets.
"The Kickoff is expected to attract more than 200
people, including SIOR members, developers, friends and
others involved in the commercial Real Estate
Community," said Gregory Irving, SIOR and president of
the New Jersey Chapter.
"This year's event will be
cutting-edge, as it relates to the many activities of
our real estate community. One of the evening's
highlights will be the address by famed New York Mets
General Manager Omar Minaya," said Chris Marx, SIOR and
past president of the New Jersey Chapter.
"It is always amazing to
me the amount of time, effort and financial support our
colleagues give back to the community. Whether a
small financial donation or a heralded gift, the amount
of philanthropy provided directly by our real estate
community is incredible," Irving said. "I am not
aware of any of our SIOR members that do not have
multiple volunteer activities whereby they give their
time and expertise on a philanthropic basis."
"We all enjoy the idea of
giving our time and expertise to those individuals or
entities in need," said W. Joshua Levering, past SIOR
president. "this event is both an opportunity to
showcase many of our sponsors' projects, in addition to
hearing a dynamic leader of our area speak on a similar
topic."
The Kickoff Event will
begin at 4pm with cocktails, networking and major
developers presenting information on their projects.
Minaya will speak followed by a question-and-answer
forum from the audience. In addition, Irving will
present 2007 Broker Awards. For more information,
