All Denver contractors should check out CING at the next meeting (tomorrow Jan. 18, 2011). Third Tuesdays at 7am sharp at South Metro Chamber, 6840 South University Blvd. (Centennial, CO  80122 - map and directions, across from the new Streets of South Glenn) a group of 30 to 40 committed contractors convene to talk about working together to thrive in an economy we all know is still sputtering before reviving.

According to the Facebook page, CING exists for "cultivating an environment of construction business leaders to facilitate economic growth, provide communication and networking opportunities within the construction industry."

While anyone connected to construction in the Denver Metro area is welcome to join, leadership encourages members especially to invite those from related professions. CING restricts membership for those outside seeking to serve those inside to one per business category to protect the integrity of the group.

New members are encouraged to attend a couple meetings to make sure this group is a good fit. After two visits the moderate annual fee of $120 is due.

CING is part of the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce, boasting 1500+ investors. The Chamber believes that through building relationships, businesses thrive; and, subsequently, the community thrives.

Entwined as part of CING's DNA is generosity. One regular beneficiary, both financially and through labor and goods, is Home for Our Troops, a national non-profit, non-partisan 501(c)(3) organization founded in 2004. We are strongly committed to helping those who have selflessly given to our country and have returned home with serious disabilities and injuries since September 11, 2001. The homes provided by Homes for Our Troops are given at NO COST to the Veterans served.

Mark your calendar to attend CING!
