JMC held our annual Holiday Managers Meeting last week at Granite Links in Quincy to close out the end of the year and highlight accomplishments at our communities. We reflected on and celebrated progress made in 2024 and discussed exciting things to come for JMC in the new year. President Bob Ruzzo kicked off the meeting with opening remarks and his tradition of introducing new managers.

Members of the DEI Committee spoke about accomplishments throughout the year and introduced neurodiversity, which is a topic the Committee will be focusing on in 2025 to enhance JMC's commitment to being an inclusive workplace.

Vice President Nancy Gaudet touched on new business with information on properties that recently joined the portfolio and new properties set to join us in 2025. Gary Saltmarsh spoke about NSPIRE, insurance reporting, and work orders for maintenance operations. Jonathan Owens gave an update on energy at JMC and ways to enhance efficiency at our communities. Vice President Chris Butkovich provided updates on accounting and year-end financial reporting.

We also had a special guest add some magic to the day. Peter Boui, renowned magician, joined us to perform outstanding magic tricks and even got our managers involved in the fun! After lunch, the Marketing Department invited a select few Property Managers to speak on marketing strategies that have been successful at their communities.

The day closed with the inaugural awarding of the Corcoran Cup. The Cup was awarded to Property Manager, Kendra Morawski, and her team at Station Square in Mansfield! All properties were evaluated for their performance across nine different categories and the Station Square team was awarded for consistently being the strongest community across several of these categories.

This meeting was an excellent recap of the year and we cannot wait to kick off 2025!
