Considering the increase in the amount of vaccinations and decrease in COVID cases, the Hudson Gateway Association of REALTORS® has opted to hold its 105th Annual Member Appreciation Day on Monday, as a LIVE event on October 25, at the Sleepy Hollow Hotel and Conference Center in Tarrytown. (formerly the DoubleTree Hotel).
Last year, for the first time in the Association’s history, the annual event was held virtually, due to the pandemic. “After reviewing New York State guidelines, and engaging in a lot of discussion internally, we made the decision to go back to a live event, which has historically been our largest event of the year,” said Richard Haggerty, HGAR CEO. “We look forward to seeing our Realtors and Affiliates again in person this year, and we have an exciting lineup planned for the day.”
This year’s keynote speaker will be national speaker Dennis Giannetti, the “Ninja Selling Instructor,” with the theme will be “Find Your Fight.” Members Day will also feature an Ethics Class, various breakout sessions, a plated RPAC luncheon, a trade show with 50 exhibitors, the Annual Meeting, and a Celebration Cocktail Party.
O’Donnell & Cullen Tax Consultants will again serve as the Premier Sponsor with A.S.A.P. Mortgage again as the Cocktail Party Sponsor.
The full day event is free to all HGAR Realtor and Affiliate members. More information will be available within the next month on HGAR.com.
