President's Message
BANNJ President John Cioletti |
Thank you to the BANNJ members who attended our Annual Reno’s Pre-Holiday Networking party on October 28th.
The Reno’s team did a fantastic job with the event and nearly 300 guests enjoyed fantastic food, live music, prizes and more at this favorite industry social gathering. See photos from this and all events at https://www.bannj.org/image-gallery/.
We have two exciting events coming up to end the year. On Thursday, November 18th we will meet at the new Ferguson Showroom in Mahwah for business networking and for a CEU Presentation on Lighting Controls as a Component of Interior Design by Legrande. Great information for architects, designers, builders, contractors, and associate trade partners. Then, join us at Wayne Tile in Ramsey on December 2nd for a holiday gathering and a valuable presentation on How to Protect Your Business Assets & Information from Cyber Theft by Richard Gaynor, Middleton & Company.
Don’t miss this important information as cyber-crime is especially problematic during the holidays. Register today for both meetings at https://members.bannj.org/events, and I hope to see many of our members there.
