On Dec. 1, more than 40 members of the Heartland REALTOR® Organization and staff rang bells for the Salvation Army in Crystal Lake and McHenry.

The REALTOR® volunteers worked in mostly one-hour shifts at two local grocery stores, and shoppers responded by filling the red kettles with donations.

June Frantz, Heartland staff, coordinated the event.

Heartland’s 2018 officers are: Kris Brown, President; Kathleen Ricketts, President-elect; Becky Kirchner, Treasurer-secretary. Jim Haisler is the association executive.
