Metro South Weekly - Nov. 11th, 2026

One newsletter. Every Wednesday. Everything that matters.
 

MSAR is Thankful for our Veterans
MSAR has a rich history of being led by volunteers who understand sacrifice and commitment. A few that come to mind are our current President Al Hooker, VP of Gov Affairs Phillip Stewart, Director and WCR President Terri Gleaton, Past President Tony White, Director Kesha Kennedy, and so many more members and leaders who have served in the United States Armed Forces. These folks not only have extensive service records to MSAR but have given of themselves to protect our country. We are grateful!
 
Today we honor all the men and women who have served our country.
 
To the veterans in our REALTOR® family, our communities, and our homes: thank you for your courage, your sacrifice, and your service. Many of you helped protect the freedom to own a home, and we’re proud to help others achieve that dream every day.
 

Get Your Casino Royale Tickets for Friday!

Each ticket purchase supports MSAR's Political Fundraising Goal!

MSAR's Casino Royale is back for its second year! Metro South's Young Professionals Network has collected feedback to make this event the one you can't miss. Here's why:

  1. Casino Royale is now open to everyone! You don't have to be a REALTOR® or MSAR member to purchase a ticket; you only have to be 18 and ready to have a great time! Invite your friends, significant others, family, business connections, and others.
  2. The night is all about fun: We took the event down to its core - an evening of fun gaming, great food, good drinks, and even better company. You'll see an enhanced guest experience in 2026, from the way we serve the food and drinks to the basics of our program. We want you to do one thing with your evening - show up and have fun!
  3. Every dollar spent on tickets, extra play money, and drink tickets helps MSAR reach its Political Fundraising goals. If you needed a good reason to treat yourself, there it is!

Give Back to a Member in Need

Are you able to help one of MSAR's members during their time of need? See how you can make a difference below!

I hope you've had the opportunity to meet Gwandolyn Presbury. To leadership, she is a super volunteer. Gwandolyn has served at every level in MSAR's volunteer leadership capacity. She has held Vice President Positions, chair positions, director positions, and has served on almost every committee we have. Gwandolyn has been recognized as a past Good Neighbor of the Year Award Recipient for her service to those in need. This time, however, she is the one in need.

 

Gwandolyn has recently suffered a series of health issues and hospitalizations and could now use our support, more than ever. Please read her story by clicking the link below. Donate if you can, or simply share it on!

 

How You Can Help

  • Give monthly. A recurring gift gives them steady support to cover ongoing costs while they heal.
  • Give once. A one-time gift of any amount makes a real difference.
  • Share. Passing the fundraiser along to your network helps too.
  • Offer Rides to Appointments and Errands. If you can't give financially, but would like to offer other forms of care, please notify david@msarboard.com to be put in touch with the member.

Thank you for supporting someone who has supported us so much!

This fundraiser is organized by the member through GoFundMe and is not administered by MSAR.
