Tammy Evans
Realtor - RE/MAX Fraser Valley

 

The most reluctant Realtor to ever apply for a license, Tammy’s 5-year plan turned into a 3-decade passion. An agent for almost 30 years, & with RE/MAX for over 22 years, Tammy stays current with evolving trends in marketing and the legal aspect (huge!) of being a professional real estate advisor. An award-winning agent and always in the top percentage of achievers, she likes to stay connected to her community at every level; Past President of The Icelandic Club of Canada of BC & currently on the Board; she helped facilitate the Blanket Drive for the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board for over 20 years; currently sits on the Government Relations Committee, and has travelled to Mongolia and Africa as a volunteer with World Vision. The last 2 summers she has been a volunteer at an archeological dig site in Orkney and has explored her Scandinavian heritage in the Northern Isles. The awards she is proudest of are the ones she received from the FVREB for community service, and from the real estate paging company, 8 years in a row, for being one of their top 3 favorite people to answer for.

Midsummer Festival

Each June we have a booth at the Midsummer Festival on the grounds of the Scandinavian Community Centre. In addition to handing out information about our club, we also sign up new members. Everyone is invited to come out to enjoy this fun annual event. If you have time available, why not consider volunteering to help with our booth?

Christmas Party

 

In December, instead of our usual monthly dinner meeting, we have our annual Christmas party. Our guests are welcomed into the hall by the cheerful sounds of the Runeberg Choir. We have a fabulous Scandinavian Christmas dinner, followed by dancing to live music.

Monthly Dinners

Our dinner schedule for 2024 will be: Feb 14th, Apr 10th, TBD. Social hour starts at 6:00pm, dinner at 7:00pm and the dinner speaker starts at about 8:00pm. The dinner is Scandinavian and usually starts with herring and salmon open-faced sandwich appetizers and ends with coffee/tea and delicious Scandinavian desserts. The theme for the after dinner talk is usually business related and hopefully with a Scandinavian connection but we also schedule other speakers of interest. Two meetings of the year we have no speaker. Instead, in February we have our Annual General meeting where we discuss business for the upcoming year and elect our new board of directors. In June, we have our annual joke-telling contest and discover who, among us, is the best teller of jokes.
