SAN DIEGO—The women-focused commercial real estate organization CREW San Diego recently held its annual summer event, and one of its members has been honored by a local magazine as a nominee for Woman of the Year.

The CREW San Diego Summer Social was hosted in August by annual sponsor Burger Construction. This year, the event was titled “CREW County Fair” and was held at Burger's offices in Sorrento Valley. The sponsor hosted game stations including shuffleboard, CREW Who—Guess Who?, ping pong, foosball, pool, ziplining, Airsoft target and shooting, which guests paid for with tickets that were later entered into a raffle drawing for prizes. All proceeds from the games and raffle went to benefit the CREW Network Foundation. See photos from the event below.

In addition, CREW San Diego's president Lori Ann Stevens, ‎manager of business development at Turner Construction, has been nominated by San Diego Magazine for 2015 Woman of the Year. The winners will be announced September 29 at an awards ceremony. Stevens was the winner of the Women Who Mean Business award by San Diego Business Journal in 2014, as well as the winner of the 2013 Women Who Impact by San Diego Metro Magazine (in fact, she was on the cover of the May/June 2013 issue).

Along with her role with CREW, Stevens serves as a board member with NAIOP, HomeAid San Diego and SD Regional Economic Development Corp. Her previous board member positions include Junior Achievement of San Diego County, VP San Diego Habitat for Humanity and USGBC San Diego. CREW spokesperson Toni McMahon, ‎regional marketing manager at Fuscoe Engineering, tells GlobeSt.com, “Since Lori Ann has been president of CREW, we have increased our membership by 30%, increased sponsorship by 15% and raised record donation amounts to CREW Foundation, which supports women seeking commercial real estate careers with scholarships.”
