At any monthly BCAR membership meeting bring a fellow member who would not normally attend. When you phone in your reservation, let the office know who you are bringing.

Your name will be entered into a drawing for a free dinner at our next scheduled meeting, for every member you bring who has not attended a BCAR event in the last six months.

Example – If you bring one member your name is entered once, bring three members and your name is entered three times.

Second Contest Incentive

Each time a REALTOR® member or an affiliate member attends a membership meeting drop your business card into the box marked REALTOR® or Affiliate when you sign in. At the end of the year we will draw one business card from each box and that member will have their local portion of dues paid for the following year.
