Christmas Singalong Luncheon Hosted by Bruce Rider
Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009What a great voice!
Have you ever been around someone who really has a great singing voice? You’re used to hearing their speaking voice but when they start to sing, it’s almost like they become a different person. I knew early on that pursuing a singing career would be an illadvised endeavor so I stayed with the talking program. Bruce Rider, our long term lending representative from George Mason Mortgage, could easily have chosen singing as his full time gig. Both he and his brother, Fred, have incredible voices.
Bruce kindly treated our staff to an afternoon of fine food and Christmas melodies several weeks ago and we all quickly got into the spirit of the season.
Shannon also has some pretty good pipes herself!
All of us at Kaine wish everyone a Happy Holiday Season.

Kaine Homes Hosts First Trade Contractor Appreciation Meeting
Kaine Homes hosted its first Trade Contractor Appreciation Meeting back on September 15, 2008. The objective of the backyard luncheon was not only to say thanks to our Trade Contractors but also exchange new ideas about how we could more creatively face these challenging times and create an even better new home. A number of great ideas were developed and many of those have been implemented over the last seven months.
The consensus of the group was that we’re going to have to sell our way out of this downturn by offering a great product and a superior value. Everyone has cut expenses and it was agreed that further reductions could jeopardize product and service quality.

Kaine Homes Hosts Second Trade Contractor Appreciation Meeting
Scrambled eggs, sausage, hash browns, juice and unbelievably good coffee was the fare of the morning as Kaine Homes hosted its second Trade Contractor Appreciation Meeting on Thursday February 26, 2009 at the Kaine Model Home in Gates Reserve in Huntingtown, Maryland.
More than 40 Trade Contractors attended the festive early morning breakfast crowding the enormous kitchen and watching the Kaine Homes staff prepare scrambled eggs with chives, Old Bay hash browns and link sausage.
All the members of Kaine Homes arrived early to prepare the culinary delights and to work diligently greeting and serving our dedicated home craftspeople. It is these folks whose hard work and attention to detail makes a Kaine home so unique. Our homeowners have always expressed their deep appreciation for the dedicated work of our Trade Contractors. All of us at Kaine Homes were glad to show our appreciation as well.
Brooke spoke briefly expressing his appreciation for everyone’s hard work and his optimism for the future. Everyone went home with the positive energy that comes from a full belly and a good feeling about the future. Our next Trade Contractor Appreciation event is being planned for September of this year.
