Marco Realtors Celebrate Oktoberfest with Gusto

The Marco Island Area Association of Realtors (MIAAOR) hosted another fun event for its members and their affiliates last week to celebrate Oktoberfest.   

“This is just another event which brings together our membership to show them the value of having their own association here on the island to service their needs,” said Jim McGregor, President of the MIAAOR. McGregor explained the positive aspects of having the specific needs of local realtors supported locally. 

“The real estate business is a very dynamic and needs-driven business. The laws and regulations are changing, as well as the needs of our membership. Staying ahead of these changes is more important than at any other time in our history, not only for ourselves, but for our buyers and sellers.  Having this asset right here on the island has become so very important,” he said.  

Members were treated to a wide variety of delicious offerings from the Currywurst German Food Truck from Cape Coral. They offered Oktoberfest Plates consisting of Brats, Sauerkraut, Schnitzel or Currywurst served with mashed potatoes or red cabbage. They also had a choice of Philly Cheese Steak, cheeseburger, hamburger or a spicy chicken sandwich and crispy shoestring fries.

The event itself was sponsored by the following Affiliate Members of MIAAOR:
