Letter from the President, Michael Deluise






Like most Long Island business leaders you're likely looking to discover more in your business and in your life outside of the office.  We can help you do that. There is actually a group within the Melville Chamber of Commerce that will lead you to a special treasure that will make your efforts most worthwhile.
 
If you have not met Michele Michael who heads up the Chamber's Young Professionals Group then allow me to introduce you to a great woman who can help you discover something very special about the Long Island business community - the extremely capable and extraordinarily talented young executives who are the secret weapon that places those who do business here far beyond their competitors who do business elsewhere.
 
Michele is the Director of Commercial Sales and Leasing at MGM Islandwide Realty, Inc. an outstanding member of the Chamber. That is her paying job and she does it very, very well. Somehow Michele has also found the time to lead and mentor a terrific group of young men and women who are proving there is great talent in the Long Island business community. There is no doubt the future of Long Island is set as long as we can help these wonderful professionals grow and stay with us.
 
Get ready for the First Annual Hunt Long Island, presented by your Melville Chamber of Commerce. On  Saturday, September 25, the Young Professional Group of the Melville Chamber of Commerce will help all of us discover the treasures we are surrounded by. With a  most worthy mission of raising $50,000 in support of the not-for-profit Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, the 110 Corridor and the surrounding communities will be filled with the excitement created by teams of youthful and very energized executives who will spend the entire day participating in an entertainment field day challenges and exploration. There will be entertainment, contests, music, stars and great fun throughout the day.
 
No matter how old you feel you may appear to be, the Young Professionals invite you to celebrate your youth and join them as a sponsor of a team, a treasure hunter, spectator or the host of one of our many highlighted stops the teams will make throughout "The Hunt".
 
For more information about how you can join "The Hunt" visit www.thehuntli.com or you can contact Michele directly @ michelmgmrealty@optonline.net or simply call the Melville Chamber of Commerce at (631) 777-6260.
