May 2022

 President's Message 

BANNJ President Thomas Petersen
 

As part of my agenda for this year, we plan to bring back our Young Professionals Group to help focus on new ideas and perspectives within the building industry.  All BANNJ member companies are asked to encourage any young colleagues and team members under 45 years of age to join the group and contact our Executive Officer, Kathleen Kurpiel, at 201-843-6868 or kathleen@bannj.org for more information and  put you in touch with our newly appointed YP Chairs.   

Our Golf & Scholarship Awards Committee is busy planning our Annual Event at White Beeches Golf & Country Club on Monday, May 23rd.  I hope to see many of members and guests in attendance either to play golf or to network with building industry professionals at the cocktail reception and dinner following the outing.   We have some fantastic sponsorship opportunities still available as well.  All sponsors will be highlighted in the June issue of Northern Lights.  We are pleased to be awarding 6 scholarships this year to area students pursuing either a college degree or trade school certification in a building related field.   

Be sure to register for golf, sponsors and/or dinner only tickets this week at https://members.bannj.org/events.
