Oceanfront Office Agents Host Annual Gratitude Gathering to Kick Off the Holiday Season

November 25, 2025

Virginia Beach, VA — Several agents from the Long & Foster Oceanfront Office came together on Sunday, November 23, to host their annual Gratitude Gathering, a festive event dedicated to celebrating their former and current clients while giving back to the community.

The gathering welcomed clients and families to enjoy a cheerful afternoon complete with photos with Santa, holiday treats, and seasonal goodies such as pies and poinsettias—perfect for adding warmth to the Thanksgiving holiday. The event offered a heartfelt opportunity for agents to thank their clients for their continued trust and support.

In the spirit of giving, attendees generously donated non-perishable food items to support the Virginia Beach Community Development Corp. Food Bank. For every bag of food donated, guests received an entry into a raffle for a Ninja Wood-Fired Pizza Oven, adding a little extra excitement to the charitable effort.

This year’s event was hosted by a dedicated group of Oceanfront Office agents:

  • Jennie Burge
  • Jeremy Johnson
  • Jan Johnson
  • Paige Takach
  • Donna Steward
  • Ryan Bielat
  • Kathy Howell-Humphreys
  • Katie Prescott
  • Alex Currie
  • Joan Buckley

The Oceanfront Office extends sincere thanks to everyone who attended, donated, and helped spread holiday cheer. Events like this serve as a reminder of the strong relationships built through community, gratitude, and service.
