In view of the Seacoast Board of REALTORS Community Service Committee's 2010 mission "to support a much wider range of local charities and positively impact the communities we serve," please note that May is "National Military Appreciation" month.

 In honor of National Military Appreciation Month the SBR will support the Pease Greeters, by volunteering to welcome our Troops home or sending them off with a warm friendly good-bye and good luck. Please check out their web site for flight times at www.peasegreaters.org.
