September 2006 Field Report - Southeast Michigan
By: Tony Daunt – Southeast Michigan Field Director
Field Staff Office Visits
With the November elections fast approaching it’s important for REALTORS® to stay informed on the latest developments in the Capital City. We are lucky to have such a capable staff of lobbyists and advocates working on our behalf in Lansing. As your area MAR representative, it is my responsibility to work with these individuals to keep you informed so that you are aware of what your state legislature is doing for (or, in some cases, to) you.
Having said all that, the best way to share the latest news with the largest number of area REALTORS® is to attend your weekly sales meetings and give it to you in person. I am willing and able to travel to any office, at any time, on any day of the week. If you are a broker or an office manager, please take this offer to heart and call me up. My number is: 517-812-4134. If you’re a sales agent, mention this to your broker and get them to bring me in. Not only will you get the latest from the State Capitol but I’ll also bring in bagels, donuts and any other “health” food you request!

RPAC Success
Once again, the members of this association stepped up and showed their commitment to RPAC at the 2006 Michigan Association of REALTORS® convention. The 2nd Annual RPAC Putting Challenge brought in close to $2,500 and spectators were treated to a thrilling finish by finalists Susan Yeotis of the Flint Area Association of REALTORS® and Gary Bailey from the West Central Association of REALTORS®. After several clutch putts by both members, Gary emerged victorious after sinking one last putt following a near miss by Susan. Special thanks to RPAC Chairwoman Teri Spiro for her generous donation of this year’s prize – a 14 karat white gold diamond necklace. Congratulation again, Gary!
In addition to the $2,500 brought in by the putting challenge, our silent auction was again hugely successful. Thanks to the extraordinary level of participation from our local boards and associations, we were able to raise over $10,000 for a combined total of just under $14,000 for RPAC in just one day! Thank you to all who participated and please continue to support RPAC both financially and by encouraging your fellow members to contribute today.
