Why Join CREW?

The best way to get involved is to join a committee. CREW Maryland has five different committees that offer members the opportunity to leverage their skills and interests while serving in a leadership role for the Chapter.

CREW Maryland Suburban holds one to two events per month. These events are intended to connect members in the commercial real estate industry, discuss relevant real estate news and trends and promote professional development and growth. Programs and events are held at lunchtime and in the evening. CREW Maryland Suburban encourages members to get involved on a committee to maximize their membership experience. Committee participation can vary, but each committee normally has a one-hour meeting or conference call once per month.

Established in 2006, CNCC was created as a collaborative effort of the three regional chapters— Maryland Suburban, Northern Virginia and Washington, DC—to increase the visibility of the individual chapters and its members, while raising the profile of commercial real estate women in the metropolitan region. The primary goals for CNCC include:

• Hosting high-profile joint events
• Acting as a public relations vehicle to promote successes of the membership
• Providing greater opportunities for members to network
