MAINTENANCE APPRECIATION NIGHT RETURNS OCTOBER 15
Maintenance Appreciation Night on Wednesday, October 15 at Fowling Warehouse is our chance to shine a well-deserved spotlight on the hardworking maintenance technicians who keep the multifamily housing industry running smoothly. Too often, their dedication goes unnoticed, yet they are the first to respond when something goes wrong and the last to leave once the problem is solved. From keeping communities safe and comfortable to tackling repairs big and small, these skilled professionals are the backbone of our industry, and this night is all about honoring them. The Third Annual Maintenance Appreciation Night will be an evening will be filled with good food, refreshing drinks, fun games, and of course, fowling—a one-of-a-kind combination of football and bowling that’s perfect for friendly competition and laughter. Beyond the entertainment, Maintenance Appreciation Night is about community. It’s a chance for property managers, suppliers, and peers to come together and show gratitude for the individuals who put in the work every day to keep residents happy and properties thriving. This celebration is more than just an event—it’s a statement that our maintenance professionals matter. Their commitment may sometimes be overlooked, but on this night, it is front and center. We invite everyone to join us in recognizing their contributions, sharing in the camaraderie, and making sure our techs feel the appreciation they truly deserve. Admission for maintenance techs is free; all other admissions are $55 per person if you register and pay online $65 per person if you want to be invoiced. Sponsorships are available for $250 and include 2 admissions. Maintenance Appreciation Night is WEDNESDAY, October 15, 2025, from 5 pm to 7 pm at Fowling Warehouse, 2940 Highland Avenue, Cincinnati.
