Please pull into the parking lot on the left with the "Welcome" sign, park in any open spot, and enter at the southwest corner of the building (a sign will be on the door). Lunch will be provided. Please be sure to wear close-toed shoes and dress for a warehouse environment.

Golden Calculator Award!

The property managers and property administrators have created a new "Golden Calculator Award" to be given to one property accountant every other month to show their thanks for all their hard work. Nominations are for those accountants that have gone over and above, as recommended by property managers and administrators.

Congratulations to Kay Wallin for receiving this month's Golden Calculator Award!
