    Where the Gold is in the Winter Sun

    To me, below, is a catchy S l o g a n .
    Levitt & I.T.T. Braintrust began very early with their advertising Promotions for ‘ Palm Coast ‘. They distributed this on three Continents of the World. I am Steward of much including this advertising packet which we received in 1969ish and thought I would share it for Coastal Cloud or another Business to use this/something similar for their advertising promotions. I hope this helps provide a ‘ sense of place ‘ for the newer Palm Coasters and also may be helpful for enhancing and promoting Businesses here…

    ” Palm Coast is a Family Kind of Place”

    Palm Coast Offers you:

    A Better place, a better life, a better way.

    An excellent long-term investment with promising potential for the future.

    An excellent location for a second home. A place for vacations, long weekends or year round living…a place to retire to far from big city noise, smog and high taxes – yet only hours away by jet.

    Palm Coast is a place where the sun came one summer and decided to stay all year. You will always enjoy the weather at Palm Coast…we like to say we have three seasons…Spring, Summer and an early Fall all Winter.

    We will offer waterfront lots and inland lots. A beautiful rolling golf course and tennis courts are scheduled for completion by 1971. A marina and modern Golf Club house are scheduled for completion in 1972. Palm Coast will offer you all you’d want for an active well-rounded life.

    You don’t have to build immediately. You can buy a lot now and build later. Many people will hold their properties for five, ten or fifteen years before building, selling or trading.

    Palm Coast will be the kind of place you’d want for you and your family…a fun in the sun community…

    ………..A place where the Gold is in the Winter Sun………..
