Mums the word for Landfall Realty
Orange was the color of the day, starting with the hand painted pumpkins by local Landfall artists. The sky, however, was Carolina Blue on Saturday, October 9, which was a day of fun for kids of all ages. Landfall’s annual Fall Festival was another tremendous success raising money for the Kenan Chapel and the Landfall Foundation. Landfall Realty was happy to volunteer at this community wide event, meeting and greeting new found friends as well as familiar property owners. The activities included a plant sale by the Council of Association, games for the children, face painting, and pumpkin painting, along with pony rides and the “Root Beer Float” in its own “boot.”
Landfall’s bluebird friends displayed their bluebird houses, and talked about their bluebird attraction program. There were plenty of arts and crafts items for sale as well as a Landfall Bake Sale that was a huge hit, especially the specialties by our own entrepreneur Kate Costella, owner of Aunt Cake’s Cookies, yum!

On August 15, 2009 Landfall property owners will have the opportunity to join other area residents supporting First in Families of Southeastern NC in a one-of-a-kind event featuring artists painting at differenet locations throughout downtown Wilmington, NC. These artistic pieces will then be auctioned off at Chandler’s Wharf beginning at 7:00PM
A new addition this year is the Boardwalk Blast, a Battle of the Bands that has its final round of competition on August 8th from 1-5PM. Talented area musicians have been competing over the course of three prior events to whittle down the field to just two bands who will duel throughout the afternoon to see who claims the grand prize. What a great way for Landfall families, friends, and neighbors to spend a Saturday afternoon!
