Dirt Movers Win!


Quite a day yesterday on Daniel Island and in Charleston. First, our sales team group at Daniel Island won the battle of the new releases. We split the sales team into two sides and our team, The Daniel Island Dirt Movers triumphed over the Daniel Island Lot Lovers. We sold more of the new releases than they did so we all won a weekend trip. (Hopefully with spouses says Steve.) It was a successful day with almost 40 lots sold and around $15 million raised.

All the events (helicopter rides, schooner rides, golf and tennis lessons, etc.) went off smoothly and the evening oyster roast was great! It was a beautiful day and it was very exciting to watch people win their choice of lots. It was a long day but a fun one! The upside is that not all the lots were sold so we still have some inventory to sell in the upcoming months.

Steve got up early and headed downtown yesterday to watch friends run the 30th annual Cooper River Bridge Run. After running the marathon last week, he decided to take it easy, enjoy a bloody mary and watch other people suffer. He said it was a great race to watch and very well organized considering it had over 40,000 participants. He said the town was rocking as bars and restaurants were teeming with people drinking beer at 10 am. Next year we both plan on doing the bridge run as it really is a worthy community event.

Steve is also very excited this week because not only is it Masters week, but he is driving over to Augusta on Tuesday for the practice round. He has never been to the Masters and is a golf nut so he plans on walking the entire course. Everyone says it is an absolutely beautiful course and it's great that is is only 3 hours away.
