National Quality Award Visit |
|
Recently, The Pringle Companies was
pleasantly surprised to learn we had been selected for an on-site visit
by a panel of national quality judges representing the best in the
housing industry.
We were one of only seven companies selected
for this honor nationwide. We were very proud to be one of these seven!
The visit went very well and we believe we
have an organization that is continuously learning and improving with
quality employees building superior homes for our customers.
Also, we excel in after the sale service,
stay in contact with customers via a website with construction pictures
and cover our workmanship and materials with an excellent warranty.
We feel like we already offer top quality
products and excellent service but there is always room for improvement…
We plan to continue to push for this extra
improvement so we can be here another 20 + years serving your housing
needs.
If you have feedback for us about our
service or quality, please let us know so we can continue to improve our
business.
Thank you,
Scott Mills

Red Carpet Treatment:The Construction
Phase |
|
"At Pringle, we want to help the buyer through the entire building
process."
In previous issues of Dreamscapes, we have
described how different departments of Pringle Development have provided
the "Red Carpet Treatment." We focused in on both the salespeople and
the Design Center, along with the Quality Assurance Dept., all of whom
work together to insure the best product and service to the interested
buyer.
For those who decide to build a home in a
Pringle Development, the close contact between builder and buyer
continues. When a signed Notice To Proceed (NTP) is completed, it goes
to the Accounting Dept. in order to set the wheels in motion for the
financial end of the agreement. The notice is then sent to the
Construction Dept., which begins two main functions; the Coordinator
applies for a permit with the Building Dept., and the Estimating Dept.
"builds" the house on paper, establishing blueprints and preparing
purchase orders to obtain material needed for the custom home. Once the
permit is issued, a basic survey is completed, ensuring that the home
will be placed properly on the lot.

Pickleball at Legacy |

Three Sports in One!
Most people are familiar with tennis, ping-pong and badminton, but how
many of us are familiar with a sport that combines various aspects of
these three sports into what has become known as pickleball? Several
Legacy residents have incorporated this game into the many activities
that take place in the community.
This mini-tennis game was created during the summer of 1965 in
Bainbridge Island near Seattle. The original purpose of the game was to
provide a sport for the entire family, according to its co-inventors
U.S. Congressman Joel Pritchard, William Bell and Barney McCallum. When
the game was first played, the family dog named Pickles would chase
after the errant balls and hide in the bushes. Pickle's ball was
eventually shortened to pickleball. The game became popular since it
could be played on any hard surface in backyards, driveways, or dead-end
streets.

”A Tip Of The Hat" To Two of Royal Highland’s Newest Residents
The minute Frank and Gloria Koepp passed through the entrance at Royal
Highlands, they experienced a certain warmth. And no, it wasn’t heat
from Florida’s sun; it was the overall appearance of the community that
made them feel as though they had arrived at their new home.
The Koepps have been residents in the community for only about 7 months,
but they have already made many friends. They have found their new
neighbors to be very warm and friendly.

You'll Find Everything Under One Roof at International Super Buffet
"What's for dinner?" Sound familiar? I think most of us have heard that
question over the years.
A new eating place in Leesburg may help answer that very question. The
International Super Buffet has been open for about a year and has been a
welcomed addition to the neighborhood. This large, brightly lit
restaurant seats more than 300 people. There is also a private banquet
room which accommodates over 100 people and it may be used by large
groups at no extra cost. Nine large buffet tables feature over 300 items
and a special "Mongolian Bar," where a chef prepares your choice of
items to your liking. Everything appeared very fresh, and all of the
items were labeled and neatly presented. There is also a menu with
individually priced items if one does not care to partake of the buffet.
