CPAs Coming Together for the FICPA Educational Foundation at the Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo The FICPA Educational Foundation hosts its 7th Annual Family Retreat at Ocean Reef from July 30 to August 2, 2015. Our Ocean Reef Retreat is a casual event with a golf tournament, cocktail parties and a moonlight beach luau. It s all designed to promote the CPA profession, increase awareness and support of the FICPA Educational Foundation, and encourage our attendees and families to get to know each other. This festive gathering includes talks with our profession s leaders and late-night storytelling for the kids. Held in one of the most natural and beautiful settings in the United States, this 2,500-acre private equity resort at Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo is home to 5-star hotel accommodations. Ocean Reef also boasts a spa and fitness center; three championship golf courses; a Har- Tru tennis facility; numerous restaurants and bars; a private airport; a world-class, 150-slip marina; and a watersports island haven that includes a saltwater lagoon, kiddies beach, children s and adult pools, beach volleyball courts and sailing activities. If you re looking for an offshore adventure, you can enjoy deep sea and flats fishing as well as diving and snorkeling. The Educational Foundation is committed to making the Retreat affordable, and at $175 per night (kids stay free), we believe we ve succeeded! The first six events have attracted more than 900 CPAs and their families, have raised more than $75,000 for the Foundation and helped establish a new $35,000 endowment the George A. Gulisano Endowment Fund to help deserving accounting students in Florida. This year s retreat includes a reception for the incoming 2015-16 FICPA Chair, Mia Thomas and a moonlight beach luau dinner with the 2015-16 President, Jason Chorlins of the FICPA Educational Foundation and our keynote speaker.

The Venue: Ocean Reef Club www.oceanreef.com Ocean Reef Club is a private resort, located just 45 minutes south of Miami. Explore this natural paradise and stay a day or the entire weekend. With so many activities to choose from, don t pass up a unique opportunity to visit this extraordinary resort! The Dolphin Course The Dolphin Course features fairways winding past tamarind, coconut palms and mahogany trees, as well as other exotic landscaping. Glittering water hazards delight the eye and call for accuracy. The generous fairways of this course allow much more margin for error off the tee. The real test on this 6,500-yard, par-71 course arrives when you get to the greens. The Hammock Course The Hammock Course is partially situated in a mangrove with tropical hardwood hammock and contains many rare and endangered species of plants for players to observe and enjoy. With fairways meandering through this natural hammock and water vistas on 14 of the 18 holes, concentration becomes key to a good round. This par-71 course is 6,200 yards and offers a magnificent collection of memorable holes.
