Repair Affair - Marsha Booth & Associates


This Saturday June 6th, Marsha Booth & Associates is participating in the Annual Repair Affair Day here in Hardin County. As a team we will be helping one family do much needed repairs to their home with the help of Home Depot who will be helping with supplies and several Professionals who have also volunteered their time to help us make this project a success.
The leader of our team, Sandy Wallace has been involved in the Repair Affair for several years and is dedicated to helping those in the community who need it most. The home we will be working on needs things like upgraded electric, winterizing of windows and doors, floors repaired, plumbing, and lots of painting and trim work. We have a team of 16+ people involved on just this one home. There are several other teams that will be working Saturday also on different homes with different specific needs. We are excited to be a part of this program that will improve the lives of a few families in our community. If you have questions or would like to help with future projects like this, please contact Sandy Wallace at 270-766-8175 or Marsha Booth & Associates at 270-735-1353.

Community Service as a Team Building Adventure

As a fairly new Team we are always looking for fun ways to interact with our community and recently Hardin County's Repair Affair was brought up at one of our meetings. Repair Affair is our community coming together to make a difference for our low-income elderly and disabled citizens who need help making repairs to their homes. With both skilled and unskilled volunteers, minor repairs and safety issues are mostly addressed.

The event is to be held Saturday June 6th, 2009 and what is needed are the following:

  • Teams of skilled and unskilled volunteers from businesses, churches, etc. to come work on the planned day.
  • Contributions are needed to purchase materials to make the needed repairs.
  • Your friends or neighbors who are in need of some assistance repairing or winterizing their home or help with a safety concern, give them an application.

The day of the event, volunteers receive a T-shirt and a lunch is provided by other volunteers. It is a great way to bring our community together and get to know your neighbors and share your knowledge.

Our team at Marsha Booth & Associates of Remax Executive Group, Inc. has issued a challenge to all other Realtors in our area to form their own team for this event. We hope to get all the different real estate companies involved that day to help support our community. So if your team hasn't signed up yet, email Marsha Booth at marshabooth@remax.net or Sandy Wallace at sandy_wallace@earthlink.net and get your team started. We are excited to do our part and would love to work beside any of you!
