My daughter entered the St. Johns County school system in August of 2010. My expectations were exceeded in every aspect from the technology in the classrooms and even the detail into making sure that the children are placed into the “right” learning environment. Since day one, I have been so impressed with Wards Creek Elementary. Our friends that have children in Mill Creek Elementary feel the same way! After becoming one of the moms that talk about the schools and everything going on in our St. Johns County communities, I started thinking about a way we could give back to the teachers that make such a difference in our children’s lives. That’s how we developed the “Davidson Appreciates Teachers” campaign. We have made it through the first quarter focusing on pre-k, kindergarten and first grade. It has been such an amazing experience! 

184860_10150425359295385_243700390384_17202004_6571610_nI received over 75 nominations for teachers. The top 3 teachers from Wards Creek were Ms. Kenyon, Ms. Bielfeldt and Ms. Fisher. The top 3 teachers from Mill Creek were Ms. Ledford, Ms. Peska and Ms. Stewart. Over 200 votes were placed on Davidson Realty’s Facebook page for the top teachers. The winner for Wards Creek is Ms. Kenyon and the winner for Mill Creek is Ms. Ledford! Congratulations to both of them!!!184277_10150425361330385_243700390384_17202029_717259_n

I wrote a blog about the teachers at Wards Creek and Mill Creek being “bucket fillers”, so I thought it would be fun to fill some buckets with some goodies for the winning teachers. Thank you to Kathy Howell, store manager of Crocs. They donated new shoes for the teachers. I would like to also thank Andy Murray from Caddyshack’s for donating a gift certificate for each bucket. Thank you to Davidson Realty for the generous gift cards to Target and the other goodies that filled up the buckets! And last but not least, I would like to thank all of you for the time you spent nominating, voting and helping us fill the buckets of the teachers at Wards Creek and Mill Creek Elementary.

On April 1st we begin 2nd Quarter. This time we are focusing on 2nd and 3rd grade! So, get your nominations ready and send them to me, Kristen Calhoun at kcalhoun@davidsonrealtyinc.com or call me at 904.940.5000. Please share with me why you think your teacher is the best and enjoy our video blog!

Women’s Mixer – Cosmos, Vendors, & Women Specialists!

March 15, 2011

 | 
Posted by in Events, Speaker Series

cosmoOne of the fun aspects of my job involves working with the creative team at Davidson Realty. Somewhere in between a work lunch and a mimosa, a few of my favorite ladies and I decided we were turning our lunch into March’s Davidson Speaker Series. I bet you wonder how we pulled this off, well, let me share with you how this all unfolded. We were talking about how much fun ladies have when they get together and how much we share helpful tips and benefit from each other’s experiences. As lunch continued and on to dessert, we started talking about how there are a lot of things we want to know about, but we don’t take the time to get the info or we are too embarrassed to find out.

We came up with the fabulous idea to host a “Women’s Mixer”. We invited different women to come and give a short spiel about their specialties. If you have ever wanted to find out about laser hair removal, this is your chance! Laser Hair Removal by Kim will be here to answer any questions. We also have Metabolic Research coming if you are interested in learning about their Meta-HCG weight loss drops.

Not only will we be drinking Cosmos like the famous ladies from Sex and the City, we will also be getting girly. We have consultants from Silpada, Mary Kay, Go Fish, Fresh Perspectives, and Thirty-One. The photographer from Cousart Studios will be here with specials for you in case you are in need of some new family photos or business headshots.

If you have spring cleaning on your mind, but don’t want to start, talk to Michelle Petrarca from U Need Me. Without a doubt, she is the woman to get you on track! Maybe you are interested in redoing a room in your home; Interiors Revitalized can help you with that! We have something for everyone – giveaways, jewelry, delicious food, and all kinds of specials from your favorite vendors!

Save the date for March 31st at 7 p.m. to come to Davidson Realty and get your “WOMAN” on! The event is free, but vendors will be selling! Hope to see you there!

The Davidson Realty “Tahiti” Golf Tournament

March 11, 2011

 | 
Posted by in Events, Videos

 

What a day! The Davidson Companies started out playing the 18 holes at the World Golf Hall of Fame Putting Course as a shot gun start, so each team started on an assigned hole and finished 18 holes. We didn’t think the weather was going to pull through for us, but it turned out to be better than we could have imagined! The sun came out, there was a nice breeze blowing, and no one was sweating profusely (like last time!).

We had a blast – some teams stayed the same from last year’s “Hubble” Tournament (like Rick’s Chik’s) and some first timers got to experience a Davidson Outing for the first time! Everywhere I looked there were coaches, cheerleaders, and pros. I have to mention that I got 2 hole in ones and if you have ever seen me putt, you know that is a miracle!

Trophies, Awards, Recognitions & Accomplishments:
Shake Your Booty Award = Maxine
Married Couple Award = Sherry & Jim, Candy & Ed, Elsie & John, Beverly & Gene, Carly & Bruce
Hole in One Champion = Peyton’s Putter
2nd Annual Chik’s Alive Recognition = Jennifer, Michelle G, Vanessa (Ashley)
Best RSVP Award = Ashley’s New Belt – aka, the You-Go-Girl Award
“Coaching” Award = Jim
Kool Kat’s Award = Kodi’s Kats; Maxine, Sherry & Candy
TPC Trophy = The President’s Championship = Bruce, Carly, Harry & Allison
SAS-E Award = Shirley, Ana, Suzy & Ed

We finished up our great day with beer, wine, popcorn, nachos, and The Ultimate Wave Tahiti IMAX. What an amazing film! Everyone looked hysterical in their huge 3D glasses and enjoyed “riding” the waves with Kelly Slater. I can’t wait to do it again!

Posted by in Top Agents

February was a great month for our Jacksonville Realtors! 18 different agents had a sale this month for total sales of over $4.6 million. We closed over $3.6 million, which is over $2 million more in closings year to date than we had in 2010 through February! Hard work pays off and we are very proud of all our excellent agents. Here are the tops for the month:

Beverly MorseCongratulations to the Top Sales Agent in February, Beverly Morse! She had over $850,000 in buyer sales. Beverly is known for her professionalism. She almost always wins the staff & agent voted on categories for our yearly awards banquet. Most recently, she won the Dealer’s Choice Award for professionalism, honesty, sincerity, and courteousness. She is a role model for not only her fellow agents, but also the staff. Great Job, Beverly!Margherite

Our Top Lister this month is Margherite Myers with over $300,000 in listings sold and almost $475,000 in total sales. Margherite’s can-do attitude and ambitious spirit tells me we are going to see even more of her on this list in 2011! She is a team player and someone we are very lucky to have on the Davidson Team.

dottieAnd, our Top Producer is Dottie Lay with almost $1 million in closings. What is left to say about Dottie? She’s a go-getter, she’s a wonderful person, and a great friend. She has all the qualities of an amazing Realtor. She was our Top Lister in February and December, our Top Producer in November, Top Sales Agent in October, and I could keep going back far too long! One recognition that does deserve to be repeated is how she is a four time FIVE STAR AGENT.

Congratulations to all of our agents that had listings, sales, or closings in February. March is already looking up!
