Grand opening, pet adoption day set at Copperfield

     Special to Real Estate
      Today's grand opening of the model homes at U.S. Home's Copperfield neighborhood serves a dual purpose, according to Steve Hackney, president of the builder's Las Vegas Division. Hackney said visitors can see firsthand the builder's commitment to offer the latest innovations in new-home technology and bring families together with a loving animal in need.
      From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., representatives will demonstrate the Lutron RadioRA wireless home lighting system, which is an included feature in each of the builder's homes contracted for purchase before April 30; and a pet adoption event in conjunction with the Las Vegas Valley Humane Society.
      "Once we saw a demonstration of how the RadioRA system works, we knew immediately this feature was a perfect match for our home buyers," Hackney said. "It is a completely new control system and an amenity that will give our home buyers both convenience and safety.
      "And, our pet adoption days have been so successful over the years -- finding caring homes for dozens of wonderful dogs and cats -- so what better way to celebrate a grand opening than include our homeless animals from the humane society?"
      Gifts and refreshments will be available.
