Stirling Properties Participates in Soldiers’ Angels Operation Overseas Mardi Gras
COVINGTON, LOUISIANA (February 7, 2011) –
Stirling Properties collected Mardi Gras items to send to men and women serving in Afghanistan and Iraq. For the second year in a row, the company collected Mardi Gras trinkets, costumes and beads for the Louisiana Chapter of Soldiers’ Angels Operation Overseas Mardi Gras. Soldiers’ Angels is a non-profit, international volunteer organization that provides yearlong aid to all branches of the United States military.
“Several of our employees are military veterans, while others have family members who are currently deployed, so it was important to us to let the troops know we support them,” said Marty Mayer, President and CEO of Stirling Properties.
This year, with participation from area schools, employees from Stirling Properties mailed 25 boxes to send to the troops. Mrs. Daviston’s second grade class at Covington Elementary School and Mrs. Reed’s and Mrs. Bendernagel’s sixth grade classes at Mandeville Middle School provided dozens of hand crafted cards and letters which were included in the packages.
“The letters the children wrote and the cards they made are so special,” said Tina Crouchet, Lease Administrator for Stirling Properties and mother of Spc. Randy L. Caminita Jr. who is currently serving in Afghanistan. “These packages will definitely make our troops smile and, more importantly, allows us to extend our local culture and carnival spirit to those not able to spend Mardi Gras with their family and those yet to experience our carnival traditions.”
Stirling Properties’ hope is to help exceed Soldiers’ Angels goal of 1,500 boxes, which will mean every currently-deployed Louisiana Unit will have a purple, green and gold care package to open in time for Mardi Gras.

Stirling Properties’ River Chase is designated as a Louisiana Economic Development Certified Site
COVINGTON, Louisiana—- (DECEMBER 22, 2010) River Chase, a master planned, multi-use Stirling Properties’ development in Covington, satisfies all requirements set forth by the Louisiana Economic Development (LED) Certified Sites Program and has been designated as an LED Certified Site. After a rigorous review process by LED and URS, an independent third-party engineering firm, the certification means that River Chase is suitable for economic development projects.
“The LED Certified Sites Program is designed to make Louisiana more competitive for economic development deals by certifying sites that have the ability to break ground within 90 days because all rights to build are in place,” said Townsend Underhill, Vice President of Development for Stirling Properties. “River Chase’s new certification positions St. Tammany Parish for great economic success, and the Development Team at Stirling Properties remains committed to bringing national caliber businesses into the area.”
Since the inception of the LED Certified Sites Program earlier this year, LED has only certified two other Louisiana sites; the Donaldsonville Technology and Industrial Park in Donaldsonville and North Whittington Property in Shreveport. River Chase is now Louisiana’s third site, and only development in the New Orleans Metro, to be recognized with this significant honor.
Stirling Properties’ Development Team worked to receive this certification by performing due diligence with regard to legal control of the property for possible sale and/or lease, zoning restrictions, surveys, title work, environmental studies, wetlands permits, road and utility infrastructure, access to primary shipping routes, elevations, flood plain, soil analysis, traffic studies, and public infrastructure engineering. LED Certified Sites are identified by a special notation and logo. For additional information about LED Certified Sites, visit OpportunityLouisiana.com/Sites.
