Area Realty Association News

The Fayette County Real Estate Association (FCREA) along with its 2005 leadership team are eagerly anticipating another successful year. The 2005 leadership team includes Marjorie See, President, Lisa Satterfield, President-Elect, Ron Burke, Treasurer and Ronda Turner, Secretary.

In 2004, the FCREA participated as a corporate sponsor for the Fayette County Hike for Hospice; the first ever silent auction / spaghetti supper was held and considered a huge success, with proceeds of over $4000.00 being donated to the Multiple Sclerosis Society.

Plans are already under way to make 2005 just as rewarding.
