The Woodlands Texas Real Estate >>Spring Homes Pippa MAC: Real Estate Agent in The Woodlands, TX

Each year McCullough Junior High students, in The Woodlands, Texas, in 8th grade history choose a United States Veteran to Honor! (the LARGEST Jr. High in TEXAS!!!!!)

Lets remember to be thankful this Thanksgiving to our military serving us ... thank you!!!!

Students are required to:

  • Interview the veteran
  • Identify the branch of the military they served in .. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and the Coast Guard
  • Years of service
  • Other Key features
  • Additional Medals and Honors
  • Finally laminating a poster of their veteran!

The posters are then displayed in front of the school during the week of Veteran's Day.

"Thank you Grandpa!!!" ... My Daughter honored her grandfather, Jack McLennan, who was in the ARMY ... you are appreciated for all you have done!!!!

Please invite your family and friends and ESPECIALLY any veteran you know to come and see this impressive display of posters honoring over 1000 veterans.

The hope is that through this activity the students will acquire a greater appreciation for the sacrifices made by the men and women who serve in the U.S. Military and learn to express that appreciation by taking the time to honor an individual in the armed services.

Faiths Together celebrated a wonderful 10th anniversary last night!

I was so honored to be a part of the event - in the choir comprised of a people from diverse cultures and faiths.

It was awesome!!!

This event is yet one more example of why The Woodlands is such a wonderful place to live...an enriching experience for children and adults alike. From the prelude song "We Gather Together" and the sounding of the Shofar to the concluding song of "Let There Be Peace On Earth", this community set an example for the world.

In its 10th year, part of the celebration including looking back on the years past. Each person reflected on one of the amazing events of years past. They included Christian - Lutheran, Presbyterian, Catholic, Episcopal, Morman, Jewish, Aslamic, Unitarian, Bahai, Humanist, Hindu, Unity and all sorts of faith communities. The theme was "Our Common Humanity and Community; Our Different Faith Traditions; Our Unity and Diversity."

Imagine how the world would be different if we could live in this kind of loving mindset every day? I am so proud to be selling real estate in such a lovely community as The Woodlands.

A New Day!

The Marion Franke Team: Real Estate Agent in Conroe, TX

Finally this marathon election is over! I think I speak for many when I say, "Now let's get on with business as usual!" I am ready to take on the new day with a vengeance and not look back. No matter what your opinion is of the outcome, we can all use this time to focus on getting business moving again.

I am ready to not be hearing, "We will be making a decision after the election." Hopefully there will be a lot of folks out there who are ready to move forward. I will be contacting clients like crazy right now letting them know what a great opportunity is out there in real estate. Now is not the time to curl up in a ball and do nothing. Move forward or get out of the way!

Looking at our market locally, now truly is a fantastic time to buy a home, land or investment property. There are some incredible deals! Many, many people have made their wealth in times such as this. I for one want to be that Realtor who is positive and looking for creative ways to increase business.

I am looking forward to our future! I for one, am ready to work hard and reap the rewards!
