| From our BRANNJ family to yours, Happy Holidays! |
Message from BRANNJ President
Thanks to the over 100 BRANNJ members and guests who attended our annual Beefsteak & Tabletop Night on December 5th at the Fiesta in Wood-Ridge. A wonderful time was had by all, and Past Presidents Jeff Mathieu and Lou Baldanza judged the World Famous Bread Building Contest placing the Ferguson table on top! The SuperBowl was the common theme for this year’s contest, and the judges presented Jacey Raimondo, Executive Director of Habitat for Humanity of Bergen County, with a $750 check from BRANNJ for the winning charity. Many thanks to those attendees who made donations for our food drive to benefit the Center for Food Action in Mahwah, NJ. MaryAnne Belvedere, new BRANNJ builder member and a board member for CFA, addressed the crowd with a brief overview of the excellent work done by the charity.
Thank you to our 2013 Premier Partners John Cioletti of Reno’s Appliance, John Kelly of ProBuild, Howard Van Natta of VanNatta Mechanical, Vicki Reczkowski of Ferguson and Sax, Macy, Fromm. Welcome to our newest Premier Partner for 2014, Tony Cavallo of Pella Windows and Doors! Also Welcome to our first Club 44 Industry Defense Partner, Fenton Harpster of Blackman Plumbing!
