On Tuesday night, I had the pleasure of taking part in the annual NJFOA-North Banquet. It was extra special for me this year because I was recognized for my tenure as the Association’s President for the 2024 Year. Congratulations to our award winners Joe Trivisanno & Beth DelVecchio and thanks to the many members and committee members who assisted me in the execution of my duties. An extra special thanks goes out to our Assignor and my friend, Mark Bitar. Mark’s countless hours of hard work and preparation have elevated our association on so many levels. He has worked tirelessly with the Member schools we serve, the Athletic Directors, the NJFOA State Council, the other three NJFOA Chapters, The NJSIAA, and me personally. He was a great advisor and confident during my tenure. Thanks so much Mark! In addition, My sincere gratitude to the NJFOA-North members. It has been my honor to work with all.
