The theme for the 2009 Circle of Excellence banquet – The Sky’s the Limit! - set the bar high, but from all reports, the event exceeded all expectations. The breathtaking view of the city from the Stueckle Sky Club provided an incredible backdrop for an exciting evening with friends and colleagues.
Kristin Armstrong, 2008 Olympic Gold Medalist, inspired us with a timely keynote address, followed by a fabulous awards ceremony recognizing the many accomplishments of our members.
Top honors went to:
Gene Strate, Keller Williams, REALTOR® of the Year
Kit Fitzgerald, Red Barn Real Estate - Distinguished Service Award
Laurie Barrera, SelEquity – Distinguished Service Award
In addition, five new awards were presented this year:
Affiliate of the Year – Iva Deobald, First Mortgage Company of Idaho Rookie REALTOR® Award – OkHee Chang, Serenity Real Estate
Broker of the Year – KaLinn Dishion, Group One
Code of Ethics Leadership Award – Barbara Dawson, Group One
