		<description>Ken,

I couldn&#039;t agree more.  I&#039;m a fine arts teacher at a high school that exists in a community that I believe has so much potential.  A non-profit arts group in our community is working to transform the dull high school auditorium into a performing arts center.  Do you have any information that proves that improvements and dedication to the arts attracts residents or promotes the spirit of the community?

Thanks.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the compliment Joe. It would be great to identify the factors that lead to this &quot;feeling,&quot; but if you tried to create the recipe I am sure it wouldn&#039;t turn out the same. I think it has to come from people that are passionate and get great satisfaction from what they do and then from strong leadership.</description>

		<description>Ken, 

Really enjoyed your post.   I could not agree more with you.  In great communities, you can &quot;feel&quot; something different.  Prospects pick up on that &quot;feeling&quot; and &quot;vibe.&quot;

Every detail counts as prospects begin to form an opinion from their first touch point.  

Thanks for the post.</description>

		<description>Ken,

Thanks for writing this and pointing out this very important aspect of a community.  I travel and do marketing programs for senior living communities so I know what you mean about &quot;the feel and spirit of the community.&quot;  I visited a community on the east coast this week and felt such a good vibe from the minute I walked in the door.  This is either present or it&#039;s not - but it makes a huge difference to my first impression and I&#039;m sure this is true for prospects walking in the door as well.  

As a side note, I love the spirit of the work that you do at GlynnDevins.  Keep up your great work!</description>
