<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Construction Law Committee Members,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I wanted to thank, albeit slightly belated, all of those that attended the 11th Annual Construction Law Institute at the JW Marriot Grande Lakes in Orlando. There were over 425 attendees including over 300 of our construction practitioners.
I hope everyone had a great time and learned something too.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I want to congratulate our two award winners this year. Lifetime Achievement Award- Deb Mastin. Rising Star – Jason Quintero. Two very well deserved awards.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I also want to thank Cary Wright for so ably presenting the family of Bert Grandoff with the CLC resolution honoring Bert’s contributions to the practice of construction law in the state of Florida.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">An event like that is simply not possible without a great deal of help from a great number of people. I would like to thank the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">CLI Vice-Chairs: Jason Quintero, Bryan Rendzio and Diane Perera<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">CLI Committee: Trevor Arnold, Fred Dudley, Reese Henderson, Larry Leiby, Giselle Leonardo, Deb Mastin, Scott Pence, Steven Sellers, Tinsley, Lee Weintraub, Brad R. Weiss, and Cary Wright.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Review Course Chairs: Deb Mastin and Mindy Gentile<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Review Course Vice Chairs: Elizabeth Ferguson and Gregg Hutt<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Florida Bar Staff: Mary Ann Obos and Sheridan Crump<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also a great deal of thanks to our presenters and peer reviewers without whom the presentations and materials would not have been possible. Thanks to all of our industry sponsors and law firm sponsors whose commitment allows the CLI to
be held at such a great location with such great events.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those of you who plan ahead the 2019 CLI will be March 7-9, 2019, at the JW Marriot Grande Lakes, Orlando. Mark your calendars. I hope to see everyone there.<o:p></o:p></p>
