On Wednesday, September 17, 2025, NCJAR members and friends gathered at Grano Pizzeria & Italian Tavern in Scotch Plains for an evening filled with lively conversation, community spirit, and genuine connections. From 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM, the warm and welcoming atmosphere of Grano set the perfect stage for meaningful networking.
Attendees enjoyed delicious appetizers and refreshing drinks from the open bar, creating the ideal backdrop for both professional introductions and catching up with familiar faces. The evening was not only about sharing a meal—it was about building relationships, exchanging ideas, and celebrating the vibrant NCJAR community.
In addition to networking, guests came together to support our community food drive, generously donating non-perishable food items to help local families in need. This spirit of giving back showcased the heart of our Realtor® family and our shared commitment to serving the communities we live and work in.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us and made the evening so memorable. Events like these are successful because of the enthusiastic participation of our members and partners.
A special thank you goes out to our Affiliate Business Partners from Embrace Home Loans – Michael Puorro & Ted Schirm – for their support in making this networking social possible.
Together, we celebrated connections, community, and collaboration—reminding us all that the best business relationships are built over shared experiences and authentic conversations.
We look forward to seeing you at our next NCJAR Networking Social!
