The local real estate fraternity has cast aside professional and competitive rivalries to once again back a worthy cause. Past and present staff from participating agencies raise more than $2000 selling poppies in the five days leading up to Monday's November 11 Remembrance Day service, during which Bendigo Real Estate director Paul Byrne laid a wreath on behalf of the local Real Estate Institute of Victoria division. Held annually to commemorate the cessation of hostilities on the Western Front on November 11, 1918, Remembrance Day is an important day for past and present military personnel and their families. In 1997, then Governor-General, Sir William Deane declared November 11 to be Remembrance Day.
Agents raised more than $2000 leading up to Remembrance Day.
