Message from your President
2013 Governing Board
First of all, I want to thank you for the privilege of serving as
your 2013 President. I particularly are indebted to those who
have really stepped up to the plate and done way more than
their share. We would not have had as good a year without
your hard work.

DC, and San Francisco for the National Association of Realtors convention.
Again, thank you for allowing us this pleasure. The people you meet and the
things you learn at these conventions are invaluable.
