Will the New Orleans Saints March in a Real Estate Recovery in Oxnard California?
I Told You So...And now even the New Orleans Saints Agree...And They Are Marching Here...!!
For the past several years, the Dallas Cowboys have used the River Ridge fields as a pre-season training camp.They gave their loyal, local fans the chance to see them practice, signed autographs and sold memorabilia.
During that time, Sean Payton was the offensive coordinator for the Dallas Cowboys. He came with the team to Oxnard when they had their NFL training camp at the River Ridge fields located right next to the Residence Inn by Marriott.
So he saw for himself that the cooler temperatures in Oxnard might make it easier for the 2010 Super Bowl Champions to get in some good practices here in our ocean side community. New Orleans is plagued by heat and humidity this time of the year.
Payton, now, as the New Orleans Saints head coach, said, “We are going to Oxnard mainly to extend camp by a week and to escape the heat a little bit.”
According to Greg Bensel, the Saints’ vice president of communications, all practices will start at 4 p.m. and end about 6:45 p.m. Bensel said all practices in Oxnard will be open to the public.
The fans will be pumped to see their favorite NFL players, and the local economy will be pumped by the thousands that make the journey here. The city's revenue coffers have been increased in the past by over $4 million. A world class team and Super Bowl Champion might bring in even more.
What better testament to the Oxnard Real Estate community's best asset - the climate- than for a bunch of burly NFL Football players coming to this town because it is cool? How coolis that?
Do you think they will let me set up a table with the local listings of homes for sale ? Hmmmm...
Maybe not. But you certainly can call me for that super cool list of homes for sale in cool,cool Oxnard, CA.
