The Federation’s top recruiters recently enjoyed a four-day trip to New York City as a reward for winning NAHB’s fall recruitment competition within their respective HBA size categories. During their trip, the winners had the opportunity to network with other industry professionals and experience LG and Signature Kitchen Suite’s “Skyline Showroom.”

The showroom, which is located right next to the Hudson River and boasts an expansive view of the iconic New York City skyline, features two kitchens and dining spaces in what the brand calls a “culinary oasis.”

“It was an awesome trip,” said Lucinda Striker of Striker Group, and a member of the Marion County Building Industry Association. “We even got to connect with other Builder and Associate members, which was a great learning experience for me as a newer NAHB member.”

The 2023 fall recruitment competition set out a goal for HBAs to recruit as many new members as possible, and, for the first time, Associate members were eligible to compete.

Opening the door for Associates to participate gave members such as Striker — a full-time real estate agent — much-deserved recognition for bolstering membership, and it enabled her to get a firsthand look at LG and Signature Kitchen Suite’s suite of new luxury appliances.
