Exit Realty Fusion, Regina's youngest, fastest growing and most imaginative real estate company, scored big on the weekend with one of the most innovative promotions ever seen by any real estate company in Canada.

 

        Once Exit Realty Fusion had obtained a Game Day Sponsorship package with the Saskatchewan Roughriders, Exit front office staff, agents and Eco-Broker Loretta Hughes put together a weekend that drew nothing but rave review from people such as Rider CEO and President Jim Hopson, Rider Director of Marketing Steve Mazurak, Rider legend George Reed, Regina Mayor Pat Fiacco, Leader-Post columnist Rob Vanstone and CKRM broadcaster Rod Pedersen, the voice of the Riders.

 

        Exit Realty Fusion turned the Game Day Sponsorship into a weekend of fun that was nothing short of fantastic to launch the Riders' Centennial Canadian Football League season.

 

        It began with an Evening To Remember at the Saskatchewan Science Centre. Exit Realty Fusion took over the whole Science Centre and had room for 300 people who were invited to attend. There was a barbecue, prizes, a silent auction, games, tours of the Science Centre, and an autograph session with a number of former Rider greats-including Mazurak and Hopson, Lou Clare, Greg Fieger, Matt Dominguez, Marcus Crandell and Garner Ekstran. As well, those who attended the barbecue were given two books on the Riders - Rob Vanstone's book on the 1966 Grey Cup team and the Riders' First 100 Years history book, co-authored by former Leader-Post columnist Bob Hughes, who is now a co-owner of Exit Realty Fusion. Hughes and Vanstone were on hand to sign the books.

 

        Not only that, but almost three dozen mayors from throughout Saskatchewan accepted invitations to attend, and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

 

        On Game Day Sunday, those same people, and about 50 more who were guests of Exit Realty Fusion from the Navy and Royal Regina Rifles attended the game. It began with a two-hour barbecue in the south end zone. And, it was highlighted by an appearance by Rider legend George Reed, who signed autographs and happily posed for pictures with obviously thrilled fans.

 

        And, then there were tickets to the game itself, between the Riders and the B.C. Lions before a near sellout crowd. The official coin toss was handled by Exit Realty Fusion's Loretta Hughes and agent Will Amichand. And then, the crowning touch to the weekend was at halftime; the mayors and some of the guests were paraded onto the field from the south end zone.

 

        "It was so much fun," said Loretta Hughes. "We wanted to involve as many people as we could in a fun kind of weekend where they could see what our agents and staff is like and how dedicated they are. And, we wanted to show off our Game Sponsorship with the Riders. And, one of the best parts of the whole weekend is that all our guests made it possible for us to raise funds for Special Olympics of Saskatchewan."

 

        The city is already wondering what Exit Realty Fusion will do next to make this an even better place to live than it already is?
