PRESIDENT'S
MESSAGE

Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2002 to all members and your families!
I
was delighted with the enthusiastic turnout for the Big Brothers
Big Sisters “Christmas For Kids Sake” which was held
on December 23, 2001. It is wonderful how landlords, attorneys
and CIBS members were able to work together to bring food and
gifts to over 100 needy families on Long Island. |
We
hope to see you on January 24th at 8 am for our first
educational seminar to be held at 395-495 N. Service
Road, Melville. Our special guests will be Jan Burman
and Jack O’Connor with Andrea Lohneiss from Town
of Riverhead. They will be discussing the deal-making
process regarding the purchase of over 490 acres in
Calverton by Burman Properties. In addition, Co-Star
will do a short presentation and answer any questions
you may have regarding their services.
We
invite all Year 2001 CIBS members to review your Long
Island transactions for the past calendar year and submit
any deal which you consider appropriate for your candidacy
for the “Most Ingenious Deal” award. This
exciting award, as you know, is a yearly tribute, presented
at the annual ABLI-CIBS Real Estate Dinner. The event
will take place on April 11 at 6 pm at the Huntington
Hilton Hotel in Melville. We look forward to seeing
you there and to receiving your submission for “Most
Ingenious Deal.”

Please Note:
All submissions must be received by March 1, 2002 to be eligible.
(See affidavit and guidelines
on this site)
I
look forward to 2002 as a year of increasing CIBS membership
with new and exciting educational programs. Please remember
to renew your membership and encourage your associates and friends
to join the organization. We hope to see you often during the
year. And, as always, if you have any suggestions, please call
me at 516-364-2900. |

CIBS
PARTICIPATES in UNITED WAY of L.I.
“WALKWAY of HOPE”
BRICK CAMPAIGN
|
|
by Philip Shwom
Charitable Contributions Chair
CIBS
has made significant contributions to United Way coffers over the
past few years, sharing generously the proceeds of its Golf Outings.
So when United Way approached the Commercial–Industrial Brokers
Society to help in their efforts to make the “Walkway of Hope”
Brick Campaign a success, your Board of Directors agreed to support
the fund-raiser by participating in this worthwhile endeavor. The
style of “brick” chosen for purchase is an 8 x 8 inch
polished black granite tile upon which the CIBS logo and the words
Commercial-Industrial Brokers Society of Long Island will be etched
(see graphic depiction to the right).
CIBS
wishes to congratulate United Way on its new headquarters and on
the continuing success of its brick campaign.
