The weather was dreary and cool but the mood was warm and bright. Football fans from all over gathered at Gerald J. Ford Stadium to watch The Army Knights play the SMU Mustangs in the Bell Helicopter Armed Forces Bowl. They came to see a football game (and what a great game it was), but what they didn't know was they were going to experience the joy of watching the gracious family of a wounded war veteran receive a new, mortgage-free, custom home at The Bridges at Preston Crossings.
Southern Living recently published an article highlighting the top things to do in the South that are free of charge. Surprising to some, there were hundreds of exciting festivals, museums, tours and much, much more that won’t cost you a dime. Here, we’ve broken down some of the tried-and-true happenings in Texas, Georgia and North Carolina specifically. Our Bluegreen properties including Vintage Oaks at the Vineyard, Havenwood at Hunters Crossing, The Bridges at Preston Crossings, Lake Ridge at Joe Pool Lake, The Reserve at SugarTree, King Oaks, Sanctuary Cove at St. Andrews Sound and Chapel Ridge are all within a short driving distance from these wonderful, free activities. Enjoy!
This Veterans Day, we at Southstar Communities are especially proud of our military personnel who fight for our freedom and sacrifice so much for our country.We are also excited to continue our partnership with Operation FINALLY HOME, which honors wounded and disabled veterans and widows of fallen soldiers with new homes.In fact, Dan Wallrath, founder of Operation FINALLY HOME is being honored as one of CNN’s Heroes of 2010 for the work he has done fulfilling the dreams of so many veterans at several Bluegreen properties like Vintage Oaks at the Vineyard and The Bridges at Preston Crossings.
