February 8, 2011

The New Jersey Apartment Association (NJAA) has announced that Tiki Barber, former New York Giant running back and community advocate, will deliver the keynote presentation at its 2011 Annual Conference & Expo. The event, which will celebrate NJAA’s 25th Anniversary and accommodate 200 exhibitor companies and over 1,300 professionals, will be held at the Atlantic City Convention Center from May 23 – 25.

Tiki Barber will present "Play is Fundamental: How Recreation Brings Individuals, Families, and Communities Together" on Tuesday, May 24, right before the expo floor opens.

After racking up over fifteen New York Giant records, Barber retired from the NFL at the end of the 2006 NFL postseason. On February 13, 2007, he was formally introduced as a correspondent for NBC's The Today Show and Football Night in America/Sunday Night Football.[1] Barber' co-authored two books: his autobiography, Tiki: My Life and the Game Beyond with Gil Reavill and Tiki Barber's Pure Hard Workout, which reveals Barber's intensive lifting program, with his trainer, Joe Carini. Barber is an active community advocate who received the Spirit of Hope Award at the 12th annual "Friends for Life" Fall Gala in 2008, which supports multiple myeloma research.

Over the course of three days, conference attendees will choose several educational sessions to attend from an extensive list of industry related learning opportunities. In addition to the educational sessions, attendees will explore the expo floor and attend various networking events including the “Anniversary Party” which will be held at One Atlantic at the Pier at Caesars.

The NJAA Annual Conference and Expo is attended by apartment professionals who own and/or manage more than 200,000 apartments. Each year, exhibitors present the latest technology, products and services, providing a means of generating new revenue and reducing costs.
