MUSIC BINGO IS A HIT FOR RPAC!
On Monday, September 11th, during Fall Business Meetings, the Nebraska REALTORS® Association hosted our first-ever Music BINGO RPAC Participation Event! Music BINGO is a new game growing in popularity where participants first invest in RPAC for their BINGO card and then listen for songs on their card to win! Also, during the event, we held a live auction where we auctioned off “tailgater” basics, including a Traeger grill, a YETI cooler, and a wagon! It was a fantastic event. Thank you to everyone who participated and invested in RPAC!
