Dear Members and Friends,

We had our Spring Party at The Porch on April 17, 2008. We were very kindly hosted in a -as our hosts say- "transcedent ambiance of relaxed positive energy that is almost impossible to find in New York City". Starting with Mr. Bozok Goren and Mr. Ozbil Tezcan, we would like to thank the entire crew for their valuable service and hospitality.

The event was attended by many of our members and friends. It was a great pleasure and honor for us to see many young guests, as they add energy and bring new perspectives to the Forum.

The event was also a farewell to our former valuable Executive Director, Sevda Bahceci. We would like to thank her once again for her dedicated work.

It was really empowering to hear from most of our attendees how pleasent the party was. As in our previous events, we enrolled new members during this event. It was also a pleasure for us to see a lot of new faces who are interested in joining our group.

We would like to thank all who came and shared these pleasant hours with us.

For those who missed this event, we look forward to seeing you at our next event. If you would like to be a part of the planning, or become a contributing sponsor, please feel free to contact us at www.forum.org or 212.599.1192.

Best regards,

Turkish-American Business Forum
