Mark began his career at a small firm in Boston, MA where he worked with individuals and groups teaching them how to become more effective communicators and team members through outdoor adventure and education.

In 1998, Mark and his family moved to Central NY. Mark worked for the family milk trucking business where he connected with the Ag industry. He still holds his Class A CDL (Commercial Driver’s License).

Mark’s primary areas of expertise lie in sustainable business transfer, insurance and wealth management along with qualified and non-qualified plan development. Over the last several years, Mark’s work in management consulting and speaking has grown. He spends significant time consulting with families and businesses to better organize team workflow and company culture.

GOOD NEWS: Within the hour the NYS Senate, in a 60-0 vote,passed our bill requiring the Supt. of Financial Services to grant

three (3) CE credits to active members of a statewideinsurance producer association—including NAIFA-NYS.

THANK YOU TO THE BILL SPONSORS—Insurance Comm. Chair Sen. Neil Breslin and member Sen. John Brooks.

_____________________________________________________________

S. 4365 is a revised reintroduction of our 2018 bill that would have grantedsix (6) CE credits for active membership. Though that bill passed the Senate

by 62-1 and the Assembly unanimously, Governor Cuomo vetoed the legislation,citing concern over the number of CE credits it authorized.

TOMORROW MORNING,the Assembly Insurance Committee will consider its version

(A. 5922), sponsored by Assem. Pamela Hunter with strong supportfrom Chairman Kevin Cahill.

Stay tuned for updates.___________________________________________________________

WHAT OUR BILL DOES:

- defines a “statewide professional insurance producer association”(i.e., in existence at least 10 years; dedicated to promoting integrity, trust, professionalism, and business interests of its members through education/advocacy/social interaction; issues a pro-

fessional publication at least quarterly & other instructional guidance throughout the year; etc.)

- lists what a licensed producer must do to be considered “active” andeligible for the CE credits (member in good standing/dues paid in full;

read the association's code of ethics; attended at least one CE-certifiededucational session sponsored by the association)

- establishes a process by which the association will file with DFS a listof its members in good standing

Erik Osborne sits in the library of his home.

Hailing from a long line of entrepreneurs, activists and social reformers, I have worked tirelessly to

not only honor, but grow the legacies of the family members who came before me. My family has

strong ties to the Auburn community and helping to build one another up is a common thread running

through our history.

It was imperative for me to find a permanent home for my family’s foundation to carry on a

positive impact on Cayuga County even after I am gone. I partnered with the Community Foundation

to transfer our private foundation into a donor-advised fund to solidify and streamline our support.

The Community Foundation’s permanent stewardship and prudent investment management

aimed at long-term growth will ensure that my family’s charitable legacy is carried on for the

benefit of future generations.

Dear Members, The board is committed to preserving the culture of our local chapter and providing more value than ever before. Vital to these goals, as well as the sustainability and growth of NAIFA, is membership. Membership has now become our top priority. More members mean a stronger culture and a greater ability to provide value. Without new members, NAIFA will vanish, and so too will the political advocacy that protects our careers. If you love your career, you must love NAIFA. We must all accept a personal accountability for NAIFA's growth. Staying local is our way of saying that we have a voice and we can make a difference. Please join us and make the commitment to bring on one new member over the next 12 months. This will solve all of our financial concerns as a local chapter and demonstrate to the rest of the country that growth is possible. The board has signed, and now we ask you to do the same. Attached you will find a commitment letter. Please sign and please commit. Sincerely, Maxwell Bobrycki NAIFA-Syracuse Membership Chair

NAIFA MEMBER COMMITMENT LETTER I _______________________________________ will commit, to bring on one new member to NAIFA Syracuse in the next 12 months. Because I believe in the value of this institution, I will hold myself personally accountable for its growth and success. I acknowledge that the future of NAIFA depends on new membership. Because of this, I will use my skills as an advisor to demonstrate the necessity of membership to my peers. Signature _________________________________________Date___________________

Dear NAIFA-Syracuse Members: Thank you so much for your support and membership! It is because of each one of you, I am excited to announce that we are able to continue to stay strong as a local NAIFA Chapter. We have 105 members and intend to grow more than 10% this year! We are very grateful for each one of you and value you. If anyone is in the fortunate position to become a benefactor, it will help in the following ways: Operating expenses: Charlotte is our Association executive and works hard to see that we have the best local NAIFA chapter. Representation: We will continue to have a face at the Albany and Washington annual meetings. Impactful meetings: Such as continuing to host the Syracuse Police awards breakfast meeting and have great speakers. Legislative Breakfast: This event has increased over the years and is a great way for our members to have meaningful discussions with the local representatives. These depend on the loving support you all give with your membership, and the benefactor program. For those that gave in the past to the benefactor program, thank you again, and for those able to give now, thank you in advance. Please join the 2018-2019 NAIFA-Syracuse Benefactors Program.
