Fall Luncheons Recap: Economic Insights, New Leadership, and Real-Life Manager Stories

On September 11, 2024, over 125 members gathered at Pechanga for a highly informative luncheon focused on the economic forecast, led by Dr. Raymond Sfeir, Ph.D. Attendees gained perspective on economic trends that could impact our industry in the coming years. The event also introduced our new Executive Director, Erica Tenney, CMCA, AMS, and unveiled our 2025 Marketing Plan—an exciting roadmap for celebration, growth, and outreach in the year ahead.

On October 9, 2024, members reconvened at Dos Lagos for a lighter, yet impactful, luncheon featuring “Manager Horror Stories.” Panelists Greg Borzilleri; Jessica Clifford, CMCA, AMS; Matthew Gardner, Esq.; Timothy Mahar, Esq.; Jay McGuire, CMCA; and Sarah Reed shared reallife scenarios faced by both managers and business partners. The stories were as entertaining as they were educational, offering guidance on navigating challenging situations with professionalism and integrity.

Both events were memorable opportunities for networking, learning, and connecting with fellow members. Thanks to everyone who joined us—we look forward to additional insightful gatherings to finish out the year!
