good recovery.

We send our congrats to Debby Potter’s

Congratulations to Dixie Ball who won the

Continued from page 1 (Updates)

Coming up on March 4th is Mardi Gras. We

always celebrate this holiday at the office

and this year is no exception. Although

some of the agents will be gone to the RE/MAX

convention, the rest of us will still celebrate. So

come with your beads and we will have King cake

at both offices around the noon hour. Take your

chance of getting the King Baby. It brings you luck

and you get to furnish next years cake.

March 17th is on a Monday. We’re

officially making it jean day but you best

wear some green or you might get

pinched. We will have some goodies

during the lunch hour.

So keep watching for all the things that could be

coming up. We don’t want you to miss out on any of the

fun. We work hard and we play hard that’s what makes

us such a good company of agents.

Till next month,

Donna Schulze

Editor

start with some facts you might find interesting. We all

know that the name for WSU’s athletic teams is the

Shockers & collectively, students are also referred to as

being “Shockers”. The name reflects the university’s

heritage. Early students earned money by shocking or

harvesting wheat in nearby fields. Early football games

were played on a stubbed wheat field. 1904 was when

they became known at “Wheatshockers”. That name

was never officially adopted but caught on till it was

shortened to Shockers. WUShock came to life in 1948.

Now to win a prize! If you know the answer to the

following questions you could win a prize. You need to

call me, Donna Schulze – 554-2828, leave your name,

date and time of day with the correct reply and I’ll let you

know if you are a winner.

Question 1: In 1904 the WSU Pep Club members were

known as what?

Question 2: We have an agent in our office that was

once a WUShock mascot. Who is it and what year or

years did they hold this honor?

So I hope everyone reads the paper and I’ll be waiting for

your calls.
