AR Meetup, Brought Out the Faithful!

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Fran Rokicki Realty, LLC

We had a great weather day for our AR Meetup in Manchester, Ct, yesterday.  From 4pm thru 6pm, we laughed, joked and guessed at who may walk in the door at any moment.  We all understand how hectic and unplanned our days become, in this profession.  Today's market offers even more obstacles and we discussed those issues while enjoying very tasty pizza and Foxon Soda.  (This soda company uses pure cane sugar in their beverages:), along with many choices of flavors.  I had lemon ice, George had cola.  They offer birch beer, orange, root beer, creme and others.

Such a nice afternoon.  George Souto, Tatyana Makarova, Ed Silva     Thank you for making the time to share a few thoughts, ideas, experiences and laughter, as part of the Rain.  George Souto is a mortgage officer with McCue Mortgage Co. in New Britain, Ct., Tatyana Makarova is a Realtor with Coldwell Banker in South Windsor, Ct., Ed Silva is a Realtor with RE/MAX Professionals in Cheshire, Ct and Fran Rokicki is a Broker/Owner in Bolton, Ct.

Frances we had a small number, but I had a great time.  I look forward to the next Meet-Up, maybe next time I will get on the phone with a few of the local ActiveRain member and try to encourage them to join us.

Fran, even though it was small, just seeing people live makes it special and more than just the face on the blog roll. It was nice to meet face to face.

George and Ed, We may have had a small group, but, they were awesome members who share and care!  Makes all the difference!

When a meet-up group is small, it is a great opportunity to spend quality time connecting with those who are present!
