Events in the Regions

               In  the  spring  of  2017,  FGM  made  a  5-year  commitment  to  the  University  of  Illinois  at  Urbana-
               Champaign to sponsor a scholarship to an Illinois resident graduate student.  The scholarship will
               be  given  out  each  spring  and  will  be  known  as  the  FGM  Scholar.    Congratulations  to  David
               O’Donough  in  earning  the  inaugural  scholarship.    Part  of  the  award  is  an  offer  of  a  summer
               internship and were happy to have David join us.






                                                          There were many social gatherings over the last year.
                                                          In May, the Northern Region held another Cinco De
                                                          Mayo  party,  which  included  Mexican  music  and
                                                          authentic Mexican foods.












               August was a very busy social month for FGM.
               John  Ochoa  once  again  hosted  a  Texas
               Hold’em event at his house.  Everyone’s poker
               face was in full force and the night ended with
               Chris  Grandy,  David  O’Donough,  Katherine
               Kimmel and Elba Villalobos taking the top spots.











                                                              Michael Jordan paid a visit to his new restaurant
                                                              in  the  lower  level  of  our  office  building  in  Oak
                                                              Brook.  The Northern Region held an office wide
                                                              Happy  Hour  there  enjoying  the  delicious
                                                              appetizers and a few drinks.
