FOOD FOR THOUGHT: A Unique Workshop about Healthy Eating Habits

June 17, 2011

Posted by in Events, News

Sometimes the reason a diet doesn’t work has nothing to do with food. Even when we have the best intentions of eating healthy, we fall off the wagon. Why is it so hard to sustain healthy eating habits for an extended period of time? Why do we fall back into our old ways of eating?

Holes: A Food for Thought Workshop addresses the “holes” or gaps in our attempts to make healthy habits part of our permanent lifestyle. This four-part workshop series helps attendees find that ‘missing link’ that keeps us from reaching our goals.  It’s not a diet program and it can help no matter what your eating habits are.

Part 1 June 21: What is Holes? (Intro to workshop and open discussion)

Part 2 June 28: What’s Eating Holes in Your Goals? (What is getting in the way of your success? What causes you to eat and act the way you do over time?)

Part 3 July 5: How to Stop the Holes from Growing (It is not about the “right” plan, the latest trend, or will power.)

Part 4 July 12: Heal the Holes (Learn about the support available so you can reach and sustain your goals!!!)

The 4-part workshop series costs $39.99 in advance or $49.99 at the door. The workshops will be held at Davidson Realty from 7:00 – 9:00 pm on June 21, June 28, July 5 and July 12. They will be presented by Robert Ferry LMHC, who specializes in addiction and personal coaching. Contact Dawn Barbarine at (904) 347-5301 or DawnBarbarine@gmail.com to reserve your spot or learn more.

Davidson Does Baskets & Blooms!

April 27, 2011

DSC04717Last night, the Renaissance Resort at World Golf Village hosted Baskets & Blooms, an annual tri-school fundraiser for Mill Creek Elementary, Wards Creek Elementary and Pacetti Bay Middle School. In the three schools, each classroom donated a basket worth $100. Each school donated a basket worth $500. The PTO and PTSO collected donated items to raffle from Orlando all the way to Georgia.

DSC04705As a way to help the schools, Davidson Realty worked with a few of our World Golf Village businesses to put together a basket to be raffled at the event.  We named the basket “Spoil Me in WGV”. Honours Golf donated a foursome of golf at Slammer & Squire. Spa Laterra donated the Revitalization Spa package to pamper the winner with a pedicure, manicure and facial. If that wasn’t enough “spoiling”, our basket contained 4 IMAX tickets and 4 putting, Hall of Fame and Challenge Hole passes. The Village Chiropractic Center donated a one hour massage. Murray Bros Caddyshack gave a gift certificate, too. Davidson Realty donated Neighbhorhood of World Golf Village wine glasses and a tote bag. Thank you so much to the businesses that helped us raise money for the schools!

DSC04711Davidson Realty President Sherry Davidson joined agents and staff for a chance to win one of the many fabulous baskets at the event. The baskets ranged from Disney and Universal passes, golf and spa packages, patio furniture worth $7,000, beach baskets, pamper me packages, bundle of joy packages, etc! Talk about one of the social events of the year; it was soooo much fun! Mostly women attended, but there were a few ladies that brought their men (probably to carry all their baskets to the car!) It was such a wonderful evening. The Renaissance did a great job hosting the event. The food and service were awesome. Several Nease High School students volunteered to be the “basket runners.” The PTO and PTSO did an amazing job at making this event such a success! Way to go Ladies!!!

If you missed Baskets & Blooms this year, make sure you make it to next years. The night was a 10 for sure!!!

Are you outgoing? If you answered yes and are looking for a career with a flexible schedule then come learn about starting your new real estate career with Davidson Realty!

Tonight we will enjoy wine, eat some good food, and talk real estate from 6:30 – 8 pm. We know this time won’t work for everyone interested, so if you miss it make sure to join us for either of the next two events in April:

                                                         April 15th: a Davidson company cookout at noon
                                                         April 22nd: 9 am breakfast

These events are planned to be very casual and to just open the floor for your questions and concerns. It’s a “no pressure” way to learn more about selling Northeast Florida real estate. If none of these dates and times work for you, be sure to contact Sherry Davidson at SDavidson@DavidsonRealtyInc.Com and she will be able to answer any of your questions.
