LAKESIDE NEWS FROM THE SPIRES
A NOTE FROM OUR TEAM
Greetings from The Spires team!
The other day, I saw a piece of inspirational decor that caught my eye and said, "It's not the journey or the destination. It's the seatmate." I found that statement to be so simple, yet powerful and true.
We each have a history, a story, or a past, and the joy of making new friends is in the sharing and telling of the highlights of those years. When we share those moments, we quickly realize we have so much in common and that the world truly is a small place. I witness this happen multiple times at our gatherings when future residents meet for the first time and realize they worked together years prior, are close friends with someone's current neighbor, or both have a love of fishing.
It's in those moments, when I see new friendships sparking, that I know that life really is all about your seatmates. That's the reason our team is so passionate about The Spires - it's not really about the floor plans, buildings or views... for us, it's about creating a community full of wonderful, talented, inspiring seatmates.
We have many events coming up and hope to see you at one soon. If you haven't stopped by in a while, please come by the Info Center and let's sit and talk for a few minutes- we always have a seat for our friends.
Sincerely,
Monika Lawrence,
Director of Marketing
The Spires at Berry College

CONSTRUCTION SITE VISITS - NEW POLICY
We realize this is an exciting time and it’s wonderful to watch the progress unfold.
However, many large trucks and pieces of equipment are moving around the site and it is becoming increasingly more important that we keep clear of these machines and workers. Therefore, we have been asked by Brasfield & Gorrie to refrain from future visits to the construction site.
Due to safety concerns, we have been asked to monitor the progress from a distance by driving by the site and viewing from the overpass or by watching the drone footage links we will be sending you regularly.
Truly, the best views are from these elevated vantage points.
We are committed to providing you with as many photos and drone clips as we are able, so that everyone stays safe and informed. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation!
MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
Just the idea of moving can be overwhelming. Our partners at Moving Station understand that relocating to a community can bring about a host of emotions —from excitement to a fear of change and feelings of anxiety. Your Personal Relocation Managers partner with you to help you navigate this journey.
