I n this month’s issue of Community Trends ® , our experts discuss transitions. Transitions take many forms in the community association industry, including the process new construction communities undertake when they enter transition — the time when control of the association transfers from the developer/sponsor entity to the owners. At this point in a community’s life cycle, the board begins evaluating the physical and financial assets of the association to ensure the

friendly competition, networking, and fundraising to support Make-A-Wish ® New Jersey! This year was another hot day at Thompson Park in Monroe, but the sun was shining, the breeze was blowing (almost too much…frisbee was a challenge!) and the BBQ was plentiful as our members enjoyed a fun-filled day organized by our fantastic F.A.S.T. Committee and Chapter Team! We were also joined by Dominique Gleason, Director of Events for Make-A-Wish ® New Jersey, who shared that our most recent donations from last year allowed Make-A-Wish ® New Jersey to grant two wishes — a shopping spree and an all-expenses paid trip to Disney World for two brave children fighting childhood illness. It is so rewarding to hear that our collective efforts on behalf of Make A-Wish ® New Jersey are truly making a difference! I personally want to thank everyone that attended, our wonderful sponsors for your support, my fellow board members that participated in the Board Slime Challenge, and to our fan tastic F.A.S.T. Committee and Chapter Team for another wonderful event! I am excited to announce that the Board Slime Challenge raised over $5,700.00 in addition to the day’s sponsorship and registration revenue for Make-A-Wish ® New Jersey! Final totals for the day will be revealed soon as
