There was a great article in The State newspaper today about some of the area Christmas light displays around Irmo, Columbia, and Lexington today.  It just so happened that I was headed out this evening with the family to check out a few of the ones listed in the article.  In this area, there really are some great activities to get you in the Holiday mood.  Not only are there some great light displays, but some great events like the Vista Lights, which kicks off the season each November, and The Holiday Market, organized by the Junior League of Columbia as a fundraiser to allow them to support local charities in the Columbia SC area.  My kids especially enjoyed seeing the lights tonight at the Saluda Shoals park and the homes on Hope Ferry Road.  Total cost for entrance was 10.00 and it was a great way to spend a few hours !
 
 
Some popular area attractions include the Lights Before Christmas at Riverbanks Zoo and Garden.  This beloved annual event with nearly a million twinkling lights and more than 350 handcrafted images includes photos with Santa, Jingle Bell bonfire marshmallow roast and snow!  It runs nightly from 6-9p.m. through Jan. 3 (closed Dec. 24, 25 & 31) and costs $8 or $6 for ages 3-12. 
 
Another attraction is the Saluda Shoals Holiday Light on the River and a special event called the Nights of Wonder which runs through Dec. 23 from 6-10p.m.  Children can take part in a hayride, roast marshmellows, ride the train,  slide down the Winter Wonder ride, and visit with Santa.  Admission to the Lights on the River is $10 for cars with a nominal fee for the crafts and concessions. 
 
Home displays include several homes in the Hope Ferry Road neighborhood of Lexington SC; and 108 May Morning Drive in the Spring Lake subdivision.  In the Harbison/St. Andrews area at 258 Piney Grove Road the display includes a nativity, Christmas trees, large  inflatable Frosty, Mr. and Mrs. Claus and more.  In Gaston at 5320 U.S. 321 there are more than 15,000 lights plus other decorations; and in Cayce/West Columbia SC there are 3 elaborate displays, 1616 Pine St. (Twilight Manor); 509 Moss Creek Drive and 302 Hudson Street in West Columbia. The families decorating these homes are truly into the spirit of the holidays.  runs throughDec. 23 from 6-10p.m.

How to Drive Google, Search Engine Traffic, and your Customers to your Website using Social Media and Networking Websites

Social Networking Websites such as FaceBook and Twitter connect us to the people we know - Isn't time to connect with Google; The Closer we are to Google the Closer our Customers are to us…

Lexington Columbia SC Real Estate Social Networking Training Thursday January 21st 2010

Social Networking is a fundamental change in our society; it allows us to connect with our friends and customers via the internet and smart phones… it helps us stay in touch with those we care about, work with, and share with them what we are up to.

My question to you is: What if Google was one of your Social Networking Friends? Think about this: What if every time you had something special to share Google told everyone for you? and I mean Everyone on the Internet… Well Google tells everyone by ranking their stories and expertise – Do you know how to tell Google so it ranks you high?

Location: Agape Village
Village Community Center – 128 Agape Village Ct., West Columbia, SC 29169

Date: Thursday, January 21st, 2009 – 9:30am (please start arriving at 9am)

Duration: 5 hours – ample breaks will be offered.

Cost: $59 (please make checks payable to: Key Yessaad and hand them to your broker. I asked them to hold the checks until I have delivered the training.)

My Commitment: To un-shackle you from the fear of the internet and show you what your Buyers, Sellers and Google want… (Don’t we all want to make Google happy!!!) I will also give you a methodical plan of action to get you going or tweak what you are currently doing…

This training was designed to first demystify Social Networking, and furthermore allow Real Estate Professionals to attract Google and Search Engines to your content, Blogs, and Website; remember "those you don’t know" are searching for Real Estate on Google NOT FaceBook…

This is a Strategy Training that covers Micro-Blogging, RSS Feeds, Twitter, Trulia, FaceBook, Blogs, and other Social Networking Hubs to drive traffic to your website… once you understand that the essence of the internet are links, well placed links, well-written links, Google will learn to translate your intention into visibility.

My trainings are designed to support Real Estate Professionals and Brokers devise an Internet Presence that produces results and transcends the arduous jargon of SEO and Confusion that floats around the Real Estate Industry. Keep this fact in mind: Internet Agents Earn 3 times the Income of Traditional Agents ($100K+ versus $36K.)

The Training goes beyond Internet and SEO Jargon and into a Successful Real Estate Internet Strategy

 

 

I will cover the following topics in the Seminar:

  1. What is Social Networking? Let me share a quick answer: Content that Leads to you... Hmmm...
     
  2. Should you 'Social Network' and How? Well you already do... what if you did it right - and I mean to also attract Google?
     
  3. Does Google Care? Best: Can I make Google Care?
     
  4. How to write compelling Social Networking Content?
     
  5. How to integrate your profiles with Social Networking Updates?
     
  6. What are RSS Feeds?
     
  7. Will RSS Feeds Enhance my Website?
     
  8. Can I integrate my Blogs into RSS Feeds and Social Networks?

That is 50% coverage on page 1 of the search engine that has over 72% of all search traffic, AMAZING. All I did was ...... I can't tell you! You have to join EXIT and take the course so Key can get your mind right for the Google Juice."

Here's another area update for you to take a look at.  As usual, my source for all this great information is the great publication of the Lexington Chronicle.  It has some great information this week that could impact your Lexington SC Home For Sale or Irmo SC Home For Sale.  If you are buying a home in the Lexington SC or Irmo SC areas, I hope you find this information helpful !
 
$20.3 million in investments planned - Three companies plan to invest $20.3 million in Lexington County.  The companies want the county to give them a 6% fee-in-lieu of taxes instead of the normal 10.5% industrial tax rate.  Flextronics of America plans to invest $12 million in the Solectron Corp. complex in the Columbia SC  Metro Airport Enterprise Park. The number of jobs this will create was not released.  Flextronics designs, builds, ships and services electronics in 30 countries on four continents.
 
Husqvarna Professional Products and Midway Logistics plan a $8.3 million investment, creating 33 new jobs here.  Midway Logistics would lease Husqvarna a 176,400 square foot facility in the Lexington-Calhoun counties industrial park.  They make forestry, lawn and garden and construction products.
 
Lexington plans more parking downtown - Lexington Town Council voted to buy the old Lexington Interfaith Community Services property on North Church Street for future surface parking downtown.  The town had set aside $2.3 million in 2007 for a parking structure to go along with a hotel, shops and restaurant that attorney Bert Dooley has been trying to finance.  Monday the council voted to use $1.44 million to buy the North Church Street properties including the old LICS building in the former Liverman Hospital and use the remainder of the money to pave it for parking.
 
$1 million for Chapin athletics - The Irmo-Chapin Recreation Commission wants to borrow $1.03 million to buy 30-40 acres for athletics in the Chapin area.
The commission is retiring debt and would sell the bonds for a similar amount.  This will not raise property taxes, sale Elizabeth Taylor of the Irmo-Chapin Recreation Commission.  The commission has not yet identified the land.  If we can buy it for less than the $1.03 million, we will use the remaining money for maintenance and repairs of the other facilities.
 
County transit committee urged - County officials want government and business leaders to identify future public transportation needs.  The public transit planning committee was recommended after the county held a transit summit at the Lexington Town Conference Center October 16. "Lexington County needs transit to address issues of growth, traffic congestion, economic development, air quality and quality of life," Lill Mood of Chapin wrote in a summary of the summit's findings for Lexington County Council.  The summary included four recommendations:
  • County Council should appoint a committee of council members and citizens to explore solution.
  • The committee would recommend to the council steps to take and means of accomplishing them.
  • The committee would study Charleston County's methods of paying for public transit and road needs.
  • The county should sustain the limited transit now serving the county.
 
48 unit senior complex planned for Lexington County - More senior housing is set to come to Lexington.  Lexington Town Council gave initial approval Monday for a 48 unit senior apartment complex on Library Hill Lane behind the Lexington Library.  Pebble Creek will offer apartments to anyone 55 years old or older, developers told council.  An on-site beauty salon is also planned for the three story complex.
