Happy December, IFMA-GTC Family!
As the scent of pine fills the air (no more pumpkin spice please…) and the calendar pages start to dwindle, it’s hard to believe we’ve reached the end of another fantastic year with IFMA-GTC. From our chapter, we wish you and yours the happiest and most restful of Holiday seasons.
November Recap: A Night at the Barn!
Once again we rounded out the year in style! Our annual Chapter Appreciation Event at the iconic Angus Barn Pavilion on November 13th was a huge success.
It was wonderful to see so many of our dedicated members take a break, enjoy some fantastic food, and celebrate everything we’ve accomplished together this year. This night is always about saying “thank you” to you—our members—for your engagement, your hard work, and your commitment to the FM profession. The atmosphere was festive, the networking was buzzing, and we hope everyone enjoyed their drink tickets and had a little luck with the raffle prizes! We are truly grateful for our community, sponsors, and everyone who makes this event special every year.
Looking Ahead: Kickoff with Alan Mallory in January!
While we encourage you to take some well-deserved time off to recharge, don’t forget to m
ark your calendars for our high-impact 2026 kickoff event!
Join us for our January Monthly Meeting on Wednesday, January 14th, at the Prestonwood Country Club. We are excited to welcome Alan Mallory as our featured guest/speaker. Come ready to connect, learn, and hit the ground running as we dive into a new year of opportunity and growth for the Greater Triangle facilities management community.
Thank you once again for making 2025 a memorable year for IFMA-GTC. We wish you all a safe, joyful, and peaceful holiday season. We can’t wait to reconnect with you all in the New Year!
Cheers to 2026!
