This is a really simple thing to do with the students in your community. Those school books start coming home around the first week of school and one of the best ways to protect them is with a simple covering made of paper or plastic. There are a variety of items you can gather to help the kids decorate or cover their books. Large Paper bags are great and can be colored on, stickered up, or painted so that each student gets to show their individuality.
I found this great article on how to use shopping bags to make a book cover. And you can use these simple directions for making book covers out of almost any material.

We found this cringe-worthy event recently and had to share it. Look at the picture and tell us that this doesn’t look like a fantastic contest!
Not only does this look like a great event, it is a social media program’s dream! Make sure to get permission from the “contestants” to use the photo, then watermark each with your community name and start sharing!

Have a professional Photographer show up and let your residents schedule appointments with them to take individual or family pictures on some of the beautiful parts of your community.
I love taking pictures with my family but sometimes it is difficult to make the time to make an appointment, go to a new location, and all the hassle that goes with professional pictures…if a photographer were right there in my community though…. I’d definitely do it.
This would be great exposure for your beautiful community as that photographer may use some for the pictures from your shoot to promote his known business (by giving your property credit as the location of course). Think about facebook posts and tags with your community and their residents on YOUR PROPERTY.

We have an art teacher as a resident. He is providing all materials. We are providing the clubhouse, foods, wine and cheese. He is teaching participants how to create scratch art. Each person gets to take home their creation as well.
