Be part of a winning team with RE/MAX!
March 21st, 2008 Categories: Real Estate News
I grew up playing on teams. My father raised his 3 daughters as if we were his own special team, My mother coached our softball teams, I am part of a team in my professional life, my husband coaches highschool softball. It seems teams are everywhere in my life.
The decision to open a RE/MAX office was a no-brainer. I have never regretted affiliating myself with the fine folks at RE/MAX. The article in yesterday’s Oregonian just reinforced that one more time. Smart man, solid advice. Thanks Dave!
What do you think?

Cruise on into Astoria
March 12th, 2008 Categories: Local Events
Monday March 31st the first cruise ship of the 2008 schedule sails into the Port of Astoria. Anxiously awaiting the arrival will be some of the 140 “blue coasted” volunteers, 20-30 vendors, music, and shuttle buses ready to take visitors all over the North Coast. The volunteerism and organization that has been established to enhance the “cruisers” experience here is something for the community to be proud of! The number of cruise ship visitors is rapidly increasing every season as more and more ships make Astoria a “port of call”. The biggest benefit is for Astoria- our local economy is receiving a major boost every time a ship pulls in!
So I say Ahoy! to the cruisers and Thank You to the many volunteers who have helped to make their stops a success!
