ECILY TIPPERY • OCTOBER2012 but also how runs have to be certifi ed and
sanctioned. The course this year was
certifi ed and after it becomes sanctioned,
Jamie is thinking this will be an event that
puts Brentwood on the map and really
help our cities realize the impact that we
as Realtors have. It takes one step to go
on a journey and succeed; we have taken
the second step. It gets easier as we move
forward.
We Realtors do a great deal for our
community and seldom get the recognition
we deserve.
Our newly
formed
Public Affairs
committee is
asking for an
estimate of how
many of you
do some sort
of community
service. So get
that into Scott
MacIntyre or
John Bedford,
or me, so that
we can start
to let our community know how we help in
our community. There was a survey sent
out that each Broker received, if they did
not talk with you, then let them know what
you are doing and how much time you are
spending.
It is also election time; one way to make
an impact is to make sure your clients
are registered to vote. We have voting
pamphlets at the Association and you can
get them to take to your offi ce. It has also
been suggested that as part of your buyer/
seller post closing efforts, to send a voter
registration change form to your clients.
There are, I am sure, many ways to be
involved. Let us know what you are doing
so we can publicize the value of Realtors in
our community.
I am truly amazed at how our Realtor
Community comes together… First of all,
huge kudo’s to our Foundation, headed
by Cathleen Griebling. Members include
Maggie Hurtado, Dan Barnes, Curtis
Holzer, Patti Gonsalves-Shaner, Jill
Fister and Wendy Shearer. The Delta
Realtors Community Service Foundation
(DRCSF) committee is out there working
to increase our community presence as
well as raise funds for scholarships for
local students. This Foundation has a
Board of Directors made of up Realtors
and Affi liate Members
of our Association.
The Delta Harvest
Run, headed by
Wendy Shearer, was
a huge success and
I was told it had
improved from the
year before. Still
learning and getting
better, that is what
we Realtors are all
about.
I had the privilege
to “volunteer” at
the Run. I helped a bit at the fi rst aid
tent as well as the Family Fun Run. I
think most of your Board of Directors
also participated. I saw families and
almost “professional” runners on hand.
I was truly impressed when I saw Gene
Clare pass the fi nish line as well as
Cathie Marples who won an award;
I think she walked the 5K distance.
Jody Marfi a and Leia Hartje fi nished
the half marathon, wow!!! I know that
Ramesh Suman, Cynthia Alfred and
Scott MacIntyre were out on the course
keeping runners on track. If there were
others, let me know. I want to thank
Jamie Gonzalez for being a valued
member of the team. He educated me
a bit about body building, of course,

Route Flaggers gearing up before dispensing to their assigned position on the route
deltaharvestrunMany thanks to all those who got up very early in the
morning to volunteer for the 2012 Delta Harvest Run;
making it anothersuccessful event for DRCSF. Funds
raised help to support local food banksand local High
schoolscholarships.
This year the Delta Harvest Run Committee
successfully certifi ed the course. The new fast &
fl at course united Brentwood, Oakley, and the East
Bay Regional Parks using the Marsh Creek Trail.
Mayor Bob Taylor of Brentwood sounded off the gun
for the ½ Marathon, and Mayor Kevin Romnick of
Oakley sent the 5K & 10K runners off. The races all
started and fi nished at the 50 yard line at Liberty High
School Sports Field, traveling down Garin Parkway,
to Sunset Blvd where the runners enteredthe Marsh
Creek Trail. The ½ Marathon runners ran the trail into
Oakley just about out to Big Break and then made
the trip back to the school. Yes that’s 13.1 miles in
LayMan’s Terms!
KooDoo’s to Curtis Holtzer of Farmers Insurance
who was in charge of laying out the route for safety
concerns to keep the runners safe. This was an
enormous undertaking not to mention his crew
started 2 hours before everyone else! Now that’s
early!!!
The DHR Committee has already begun planning
the 2013 event. We look forward to everyone’s
participation whether it be running, walking or coming
out to help with the event. Remember this is your
Realtor Association putting on events showing the
community at large the works we do to give back to
the neighborhoods we work in.
Again thanks to everyone for all your support and we
look forward to successful events for years to come.
