Don't' Miss The Next Lunch 'N' Learn Teleconference. Register your office for the Tuesday, May 13, 2008, program, Homeowners' Policy Beyond the Basics: Subtleties, Nuances, etc., With Michael D'Orlando, CIC, CPIA. This informative program will address some of the lesser known—or misunderstood—policy wording and answers questions such as, “If Mom and Dad retire to Florida, but they keep the original house so that their son or daughter can continue to live there, is the son or daughter still an insured on Mom and Dad's policy?" and “Do I have coverage if I borrow my friend's camera and it gets stolen while I'm on vacation?” ... We'll explore these topics and more. For more information, or to register, see here: http://www.pia.org/EDU/extras/LunchNLearnCentral.shtml .
