Canyon High Band and Choir’s Mattress Sale Fundraiser, March 7th 0
by Barbara • Anaheim Hills on February 11, 2015
On Saturday, March 7th from 10 am to 5pm, the school’s cafeteria will be transformed into a mattress showroom. Buy your mattress set here and the band and choir programs keep the profits. It’s different from the usual car washes and candy sales, but is proven and much higher level. We’re working to earn at least $8,000 in order to keep the band and choir programs funded and fully operational through the current school year, so we need to be creative. We are working with Custom Fundraising Solutions to put this together; they are the experts and we hope their involvement helps us meet our challenging goal.
*All mattress sizes are available, 40%-60% off retail prices
*Pillow-top, orthopedic and memory foam sets
*All items are brand new with factory warranties
*All are name brands like Simmons, Restonic, Southerland and more
*Come try the new gel memory foam beds
*Free layaway and free delivery are available
*Cash, checks and credit cards are accepted

Showcase Concert
Join us for the Showcase Concert on Monday, March 24th at 7:15pm. The Annual Showcase Concert features all the instrumental and Color Guard performing units from Canyon High School and El Rancho Charter School. Our objective is to showcase (in one concert) the musical talent of our Anaheim Hills community elementary school, middle school and high school. A secondary objective is to get the elementary school and middle school students and parents excited about continuing on in their music studies in middle school and high school by demonstrating how much fun it can be. This event is free; the show will begin in the CHS cafeteria and move to the gym to view the marching performances, including Color Guard, Drumline and the combined El Rancho & CHS bands in a marching exhibition plus the ever-popular drill down. In a drill-down event, complex marching commands are given fast and faster, and the last student standing wins.

A Look Back at Anaheim Hills Real Estate For 2013 0
by Barbara • Anaheim Hills on February 10, 2014
Comparing December 2012 to December 2013, pended sales were down 26%, while homes available were up 61%. In January 2013, there were 43 homes on the market and in December there were 74 homes on the market or a 72% increase. Closed sales were down 9.1% over a year ago. The effect of more listings and fewer pended sales (supply and demand) is clearly illustrated in Months of Inventory/Closings (1.9 months) and Months of Inventory/Pended Sales (3.2 months) indicate a low supply and a high demand. The average price per square foot has increased from a year ago from $242 to $297. The difference between list price and eventual sales price was only 1%.
