CARLYLE - Ray Boutin and Tyler Matthewson attended the Saskatchewan Realtors Association's (SRA) Care Awards, along with 500 other people on April 24 at the Casino Regina show lounge.
This gala affair is for real estate agents from across Saskatchewan, and it is their peers that nominate and vote for their choice for several awards handed out that night.
Matthewson began in real estate in 2020 and joined Ray Boutin at Performance Realty in Carlyle, where Boutin has been since 2015.
Matthewson won the Harry Janzen Rising Star Award this year.
Harry served as the executive officer of the SRA from May 1, 2001, until his death on Nov. 9, 2011.
This award is presented to a first-time registrant in organized real estate who is viewed as a true professional in the eyes of the membership and the community.
Matthewson is a member in good standing who has an elevated level of business ethics and regularly attends the association functions and meetings.
Ray Boutin received the Realtors Care Award. This award recognizes Realtors who show they participate in their community and contribute to enhancing the quality of life in Saskatchewan.
Boutin is involved in the community, being on many boards like Affinity Credit Union, Southeast College, Community Futures Sunrise, Kenosee Boys and Girls Camp and the Moose Mountain Knights of Columbus. He also backs Art Supporting Art for the Kenosee Music Camp.
Boutin said the SRA works hard to elevate the profession, encourage and recognize their efforts.
“As Realtors, we have the opportunity to meet and connect with many people,” said Boutin. “We get involved on various boards, initiatives and worthy causes, which provides opportunities to give back.”
