July Challenge Extended…

July Challenge Extended…

 

In case you hadn’t noticed,  being able to access the ActiveRain site since the first of July has been a bit difficult. Not altogether impossible but reach outwell...wonky. 

 

So, Hannah Williams and I are extending the July Challenge ...It’s Time to Reach Out and Touch Someone...Well, Not Literally to the end of August. 

 

What better way to get back into the swing of things here in the Rain than to pick up the phone, call a member you have never spoken to or haven’t in a long time, and write a post about it. 

 

Here are the rules…

  1. The July Challenge begins July 1 and ends at midnight PST on August 31, 2020.

  2. You can write 1,2, or 3 posts. Each post will earn 750 points.

  3. Each post must be 300 words or more and contain at least 1 picture. (Hint: you can copy and paste the member’s photo or maybe they’ll send one to you to use)

  4. Leave a link(s) to your post(s) in the comment section of the second original post. PLEASE...wait until you have completed all of your calls before adding the links. 

  5. BONUS POINTS:  750 extra points if one of your posts includes a call to a new member or a member who hasn’t posted on ActiveRain in a while. 

 

Hope you’ll grab your cell phone and participate!!

Between A.R. glitches and no Internet since Sunday I have been out of the loop. I enjoyed very much the 2 phone calls from our favorite ponderer. I think I am a lucky gal.

Thanks for the extension. I haven't been on Active Rain much this month, so hope to regain my focus here in the upcoming weeks.

Hi Kathy Streib - It is so nice to see that we can find flexibility.  As a real estate agent, we have to remain flexible for changing conditions... sometimes many times in a day!

Thank you for hosting this challenge.

Hi Kathy:

Glad you and Hannah Williams have been able to extend this. I think it's a great challenge and I still hope I can make a few calls and write the posts. It's been challenging (pun intended) to even get on to do ANY reading when I have a few minutes, which is no doubt true for all. But it's such a great opportunity to get to know some new people here!!

Hi Kathy,

Extending the challenge is a good thing that helps out many that may have been disenfranchised with the system lately.  I'm not one of them, but there are those that needed the extra help in time.
