Derby Day Event
RPAC Fundraising at WBBOR
Each year, the Walton Barrow Board of REALTORS® receives an RPAC investment goal from the Georgia Association of REALTORS®, based on our membership size. Meeting that goal means protecting property rights, advocating for REALTOR®-friendly legislation, and ensuring our members' voices are heard at every level of government.
Our RPAC Fundraising Committee designs events that are fun and engaging — giving members and Affiliate partners a reason to connect, network, and invest in the future of real estate together.
Past WBBOR RPAC events have included:
