It is YOUR Board of Directors...
Each October you cast your vote to elect Directors to the Board of the Bucks County Association of Realtors®. BCAR has 16 Directors, four of whom are ending their terms this December.
Our Directors steer the BCAR ship with the goal of providing members with meaningful benefits that translate to more successful careers in real estate, while also promoting the professionalism of the REALTOR® community within Bucks County.
Have you ever thought about the unique talents and abilities you could bring to the BCAR Board table? Maybe you have more than a passing interest in technology or are a "right brain" person who is creative and could assist in marketing and communications efforts. If these attributes or others describe you, we want to hear from you!
At the end of June you will receive an email from BCAR with an application/nomination form for these open Director positions. Please give some thought to the idea of volunteering and, if you would like to be considered, complete the form and send it to BCAR EVP Pam Croke (pcroke@bucksrealtor.com). In addition, if you know another BCAR member who you think would make a good Director, please encourage them to apply.
