President's Message
I hope this message finds you and yours well and in good health
BOA is offering to management companies, a corporate membership that will allow their property management staff access to the association.
BOMA Calgary will put out a notification to their members via the electronic newsletter, BOA meeting times and dates along with who will be the guest speakers and the topics presented. Hopefully this will encourage operators to attend the monthly educational sessions.
The Building Operators Association is looking to have a trade show this year. It has been a while since the last one and some interest has been shown to have another. We will reach out to companies that in the past, had a booth to see if they would be interested in attending another one this year as well. If you did not attend with a booth the last trade show and would like to participate, please contact me at president@boacalgary.com and we will arrange to have a table set aside for you. The prices for the afternoon show are very reasonable and there are not a lot of booths sold. The last show er had pre-Covid was 35 booths. It is a very intimate affair I think much better than the other types from our industry. It will likely be held at the Thorncliffe Community Centre. It is a great venue for our monthly meetings and there is sufficient room to accommodate a trade show of any size. We will set out a layout of the room and price the cost of the tables the last trade show cost was $350.00 per table and $550.00 for the larger corner booths. We had 750 persons foot traffic through the afternoon. We provided coffee and finger food to the guests and there were plenty of door prizes to go around to the visitors. It has been 5 years since our last trade show we are due for another !
If you would like to volunteer to assist in the organization of the trade show please, reach out, many hands make light work.
The guest speaker meeting dates and times will remain the same, Second Tuesday of each month.
Meetings from 5-7 PM at the Thorncliffe Greenview Community Association 5600 Centre Street North, there is plenty of parking available and the meeting rooms are
