FOLK Book Sale

The Friends of the Library in Kingwood are pleased to announce that due to the surrounding community support, the Kingwood Library will be moving to new and improved facilities. The new branch library is scheduled to open this Fall, with the inclusion of a bargain bookstore open daily.

Since its beginning, FOLK has striven to raise donations for the library, from its initial profit of $33 to now over $5,000 every quarter. The last used book sale before moving to the new library will be held August 13-15 at the current library.

Donations will be accepted year round, to help stock the library shelves and the sales. All books, as well as textbooks and engineering-type books, magazines and media donations are greatly appreciated.


Lennar Summer Promotion

Lennar is making summer home buying a little bit more exciting with a special incentive that enables buyers to choose between three generous options when purchasing their new home.

 For a limited time, Lennar is offering buyers th e opportunity to choose one of the following:

  • $3,000 in closing costs paid by Lennar
  • A Rainbow Play System in their backyard, or
  • A front load washer and dryer

A part of the summer promotion, “There’s No Place Like Lennar” the builder is offering this in all of its Houston area communities including master-planned Oakhurst at Kingwood.

The offer applies to Lennar homes that sell between July 6, 2009 and July 19, 2009 and close by August 31, 2009. Lennar New Home Consultants have complete details on the promotion. Visit any Lennar model and sales office in any Friendswood Development Company or Trailwood community. Model homes and sales offices are open daily.


In many Friendswood Development Company communities, new-home buyers can take advantage of a special incentive that will add what many consider a very important feature to their new home. For a limited time, Village Builders is offering buyers a unique incentive: a free built-in natural gas generator in addition to free Design Studio options.

The offer applies to contracts written on homes until July 19, 2009 and homes must close by a specified contract date. Now more than ever, a permanent standby generator has become a feature that many people have chosen to add to their home, often spending as much as $10,000. The natural gas generator is designed to power a home during a loss of electrical power, something many Houstonians experienced for weeks in the aftermath of hurricane Ike. The popularity of this feature has grown significantly since the hurricane hit Houston last year and now, new-home buyers who take advantage of this special incentive from Village Builders can experience the benefits of having this feature in their own home.

Village Builders New Home Consultants have complete details on the offer, and sales offices are open daily.
