At the Peterborough and the Kawarthas Association of Realtors (PKAR) Past Presidents Night recently, members Lorne Smith and John Bowes were acknowledged for 60 years of membership.
The association says they are the only real estate professionals in Canada known to be in the business that long.
Sharon Lawes, Bill Smerhy, Dean Bridges, Gail Burton and Joe Manacchio were recognized for recently achieving 25-year memberships.
Ron Lawes was named an Honorary Fellow for his dedication and loyalty to the association.
Diane Lloyd was presented with the Merit Award for her work with Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board.
Donald Barrick was given the Past Presidents Award for his “unwavering dedication to his profession as a Realtor,” says PKAR.
The event raised $6,802 at a silent auction, which will be distributed to a local charity on behalf of the Ontario Realtors Care Foundation.
