Roughly five hundred Corpus Christi Catholic School students held a walk-a-thon on May fourth, and raised over thirty thousand dollars! The fundraiser was geared to finance new technology equipment for the school. Students mailed pledge requests out to Corpus Christi residents rather than trekking door-to-door. Your Corpus area relocation specialist thinks that the mail method was a good way for the kids to conserve energy prior to the walk-a-thon! Thirty thousand dollars is a rather impressive grand total for the May Fourth event… ‘May the Fourth be with you’ indeed!

Several construction progress will cause slow moving traffic in Corpus Christi throughout the next few days, your Corpus Christi relocation specialists will be avoiding several affected areas this weekend to ensure speedy service to our customers. If you’d rather not squeeze extra grooves into the stress-reliever that is your steering wheel, steer clear of Southbound Ocean Drive near Ropes Street. Traffic will be slow-moving and limited to only one lane. Your Corpus Christi movers will also be avoiding Up River Road as much as possible for the next week as utility repairs will be performed between Leopard Street and the 3700 block of Up River. Thankfully, the upcoming projects are intended for speedy completion, so don’t expect congestion to stick around for long!

Two Corpus Christi residents are about to have the most stress-free moving experience either of them have ever had. In January of last year, Corpus Christie teen, Taylor Berry, moved to Houston with his mother into an apartment near the Texas Children’s Hospital where the young boy awaited the arrival of his much-needed donor heart. When Taylor was a four-year-old, he received his first heart transplant. Complications made his first operation a difficult experience both for him and his family; however, his condition eventually stabilized, and Taylor lived a pretty normal life for about ten years until his donor heart failed requiring a second transplant. Taylor and his mother, Tamara, moved to Houston away from Taylor’s father and sister where Taylor waited for his new heart which he received in mid-July. Now that doctors have approved Taylor’s return to Corpus Christi, he and his mom are packing boxes and bins in preparation for their much anticipated move back to Corpus!

Next month’s Corpus Christi leg of the Texas Jazz Festival will surely lure some movers and shakers out to this three-day event. The Texas Jazz Festival has experienced a massive growth of its audience since it first began back in 1959. In the beginning, artists performed to an audience of only 150, but that number has shot up to over fifty thousand since then. The festival showcases fifty bands, and is made a fun event for the whole family with the food arts and crafts that can also be enjoyed. Many young student musicians aging from six all the way to university-level jazz virtuosos will be playing their hearts out which your Corpus Christi mover thinks will make for an amazing show! The Texas Jazz Festival gets into town on October 21st, and tickets are available now! Sounds like a blast!

The weekend was rather kind to thousands of kids in Corpus Christi who are gearing up for back to school! “More Than Just a Backpack” is the name for an event hosted by the Corpus Christi Baptist Association. Five thousand backpacks stocked with school supplies were given to kids in an effort to help out during rough economic times. Along with the free school supplies, attendees of the event were treated to snow cones, hot dogs, popcorn and music. Your Corpus Christi mover is pleased to report that the backpack giveaway was a huge success. Corpus Christi students should look forward to the event next year as the Corpus Christi Baptist Association plans to keep the event an ongoing one!

The Corpus Christi Police have recently acquired some high-quality video production equipment, and the intended results are presumed to benefit both the department and Corpus Christi locals alike! Corpus Christi PD, using seized drug money, has purchased video equipment which they are currently using to film and edit both training videos and demonstration videos. Training videos will provide a standardized curriculum for new officer education, and will also enable officers who would otherwise be on the job training new cadets to be on the job serving and protecting Corpus Christi.

Your Corpus Christi movers are excited about the new police video projects and about what they will do for the local area! It would be a lot of fun for your movers in Corpus Christi here to produce more videos both for training and for peace of mind for views who are nervous about upcoming moves in Corpus Christi.

Your Corpus Christi movers are thrilled with the upcoming improvements that have recently been reported for local traffic intersections! The city of Corpus Christi has received a federal grant which will ultimately improve the flow of traffic significantly! Data will be gathered from the majority of Corpus street intersections, which will be used to adjust traffic light intervals in order to reduce idling time vehicles spend as a result of red lights. This impending traffic efficiency enhancement is going to be a great change for all drivers in the Corpus Christi area, and especially for your professional movers! Everybody wins when these changes go into effect, everybody in Corpus Christi that is!

What is your technique when it comes to shopping for groceries? Many families lead such busy lives that when it comes time to restock the fridge and pantry, they go on a grab-and-go spree at the local super market! Grab-and-go quickness is a great method for moving in Corpus Christi, but not so much for grocery shopping; you should have a plan when you go to the grocery store so that each purchase is a smart purchase! Never go to the store without a list!

One technique that works really well for grocery shopping starts at home. It is easy to make food purchases based on nothing more than impulse, which can end up costing you a lot of money over time. How many times have you grabbed something off the shelf that never ends up leaving your fridge or pantry until it is time to be thrown out? To be sure that every food purchase has a purpose that will be carried out at home, consider shopping based on a menu! Make a menu of recipes that are frequently prepared at your home, and always keep the necessary ingredients in-stock in your kitchen. With the proper ingredients to prepare all of your family’s favorite dishes on hand, you can even cook dinner based on the majority preference each night, or designate a delicious meal for each night of the week. Efficiency in your grocery shopping means that no item will be wasted -and no money wasted either!

When you move to a new place, your first steps after moving furniture in are likely to be decorating and personalizing your new home. Hanging up pictures paintings and other wall décor is common, and will probably grace your to-do list. Hanging up each frame can be a difficult task, especially if you have quite a bit of art to hang on the wall; making sure each piece is level on top of properly spaced from the next can make you grow impatient. Your Corpus Christi mover happened upon a helpful tip which should make the task rather simple though! All that you need to do to get it right the first time is take a little time to trace each picture frame you intend to hang on a piece of paper and cut it out. On the top of each piece of paper, measure a halfway point and mark it with a pen. Arrange the papers on the wall so that everything looks the way you want your actual frames to look, and use the marks on the papers as your guide to know where to place each nail. You avoid having to re-do botched nail hammerings, and can have an easy time deciding the most optimal placing of pictures according to your preference!
