It was a full house at the Real Estate Marketing Association’s (RMA) Christmas Party held December 12, 2013 at 8:30am. Today, the meeting took on a unique format and focused on giving to charities like Toys for Tots, thanking past & current contributors and recognizing outstanding professionals in the real estate industry.
The San Ramon Valley High School choir started off the fun by serenading the room of Realtors and affiliates with holiday carols. After their musical selection, a very successful auction that earned over $1200 in funds was put on for items such as a one-of-a-kind painted picture, Christmas wreath, a fishing trip, and even a day of service with a sergeant from the Marine Corp!
The Real Estate Marketing Association made it a point to honor industry leaders in the presence of their peers by handing out various awards during the holiday festivities. Awards where given for Realtor of the Year, Affiliate of the Year, Induction into the Hall of Fame, and the 2013 Acknowledgement of Community Service Award. Award recipients included:
2013 Acknowledgement of Community Service- Glenna Nickerson
Realtors of the Year- Greg Souza
Affiliate of the Year- Karen Pickston
Induction into Hall of Fame– Evelyn Walker
A raffle followed the award designations, and the prizes given included ornate gift baskets, gifts cards, Sees candy with champagne, etc. RMA ended the party by presenting over $1900 to the charities Helping Hands, The Contra Costa Food Bank and Symbols of Freedom. With 2014 fast approaching, plans are already set in motion on how to continue expanding RMA’s legacy of giving and community building.
