Keller Williams Red Day - 2011

Today was our 3rd annual Keller Williams Red Day - a day of giving back to our community.

This was the third year in a row that we conducted spring clean-up and spring planting at two Cheyenne Village adult homes, one in Colorado Springs and the other in Manitou Springs.  I headed up the effort for the Colorado Springs location, while Don Smith took charge of the efforts in Manitou.  We had about 30 people working between the two locations.

Just like last year's Red Day, the weather did not want to cooperate, mid to high 30's and snow.  But we pressed on.  It was very rewarding to see the smiles on the residents faces when we were finished.  The flowerbeds were cleaned out with new perennial and annual flowers planted around the facility.  We had so much help, that we were finished within 90 minutes - including a bagel and coffee break.  It really makes you feel good to know how much you are appreciated.

Nancy, it is always interesting to find out how each of our offices elects to participate and celebrate RED Day.  You did have a challenging day with regard to the weather.  it was down right chilly today!  Good for all of you who participated and helped to make RED Day a success.

Karen, Barbara, and Liz, It is a great tradition.  Keller Williams Culture is like none other.

Joan, we missed your smiling face, but don't worry, we got everything done as planned.

Vickie, I ran into a friend at Panera Bread on my way to Red Day.  He asked me to remind him in advance next year so he could plan to stay home knowing that we are sure to have snow again.  ; )

Nancy, Is that Mike standing there with a shovel in one hand and reading emails on his smart phone that he's holding in the other? That cracks me up! He'll be hearing about that one for awhile, won't he? ha-ha!
