10th Annual For Rent Challenge Cup Offers Major Support to NAA Political Action Committee

 

Norfolk, VA-(May 2, 2006)- Spring is here, bringing with it the perfect weather to “tee off”. This year marks the 10th annual celebration of the For Rent Challenge Cup, a golf tournament that raised $160,000 for the National Apartment Association’s Political Awareness Committee.

On April 27 and 28, 16 golfers from Houston teamed up against 16 golfers from Dallas to raise money for the NAA’s Political Awareness Committee (PAC). The Dallas Apartment Association hosted this year’s tournament, which was held at the White Bluff Resort on Lake Whitney.  For Rent Magazine® is the title sponsor of the For Rent Challenge Cup; which is the major fundraising contributor for PAC. The tournament brings in $16,000 every year raised through player registration. Each player is required to donate $500.

In 1996, Dwaine Capodice, Vice President of Sales for For Rent Magazine® in Dallas, Kirk Tate, CPM, Principal of Orion Real Estate and John Cullens, President of ApartmentCareers.com developed the fundraiser that has generated $144,000 in the past nine years and brought another $16,000 this April, bringing the total to $160,000. This year’s champions were the Dallas team, which lead Houston 10 ½ to 5 ½. Except for a little rain on Friday, the tournament was a success. Each year, either the Houston or Dallas Apartment Association hosts the event. Last year’s tournament, hosted by the Houston Apartment Association, was held at the Walden on Lake Conroe.

“NAA is grateful each year to For Rent for its continuing sponsorship of the For Rent Challenge Cup,” says Doug Culkin, the NAA PAC Treasurer.  “It is clearly the strongest ongoing fundraiser to benefit the NAA PAC.  The competition between Dallas and Houston has sparked other regional challenges throughout the country - but none have raised as much for such an extended time as the For Rent Challenge Cup.”

“Kirk Tate, John Cullens and I started the challenge cup over ten years ago at an apartment association meeting in Corpus Cristi Texas,” says Dwaine. “As usual For Rent stepped up to the plate and supported this idea as it has and always will do for the industry we believe in.”
