   K. Hovnanian Companies won four awards recently for excellence, including Community of the Year, at the Builders League of South Jersey MAME Awards. In addition, eight associates were recognized for their work.
   Lakeside at Creekview, a community of 279 single-family homes in Hainesport, won Community of the Year with a sales price between $300,000 and $400,000. The community, built in a wooded area around a lake, features homes ranging in size from 2,350 to 3,694 square feet. The community offers six different home styles. Prices start in the low $300s. Judges looked at how the community is marketed, including advertising, brochures, general appearance and how models were decorated.
   The company also won best brochure, best home and a merit award for an ad. All of the awards were for Lakeside at Creekview.
   Carolyn Alt, sales manager, South Jersey, was named sales and marketing director of the year. The builders present only one award in this category. Ms. Alt oversees sales in South Jersey and the Philadelphia area. When K. Hovnanian purchased several communities from another builder last year, Ms. Alt played a key role in training the sales staff and absorbing those properties.
   Several other associates were recognized for their sales efforts: Sue Violetti, $24 million at Lakeside at Creekview; Elaine Hewitt, $13 million at Sawyers Creek; Toni Piccillo at Clifton Mills, $5 million; Charlene Walczak at Stockton Run, $8 million; Margie Passalacqua, Lakeside at Creekview, $8 million; Darlene Giovanisci, Stockton Run, $9 million; and Sang Lee, $9 million, Wood Hollow.
   "We’re proud to have done so well in this contest," said Michael Villane, vice president-marketing and sales for K. Hovnanian Companies. "The competition was tough, but our team is top-notch and they’ve proven it again."
