“Discover Lennar’s Autumn Sunrise community in Tualatin, featuring Next Gen floorplans and a grand opening celebration. Your dream home awaits!”
Lennar, one of the nation’s leading homebuilders, is thrilled to announce the grand opening of Autumn Sunrise, an exciting new master-planned community in Tualatin. This community showcases four unique collections of single-family and paired homes, including the highly sought-after Next Gen® – The Home Within A Home® floorplans within the Bainbridge floorplan.
On September 9, two stunning model homes—the single-story Endicott and the two-story Charlotte—will be unveiled to the public. To celebrate this milestone, a special event will occur between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Prospective buyers will have the opportunity to explore the Meadow, Canyon, Ridgeline, and Trailside collections, each offering various floorplans suitable for different lifestyles.
Tualatin has become a hot area for families due to its affordability, nearby recreation options, excellent shopping and dining opportunities, and proximity to the Portland metro area. Kelli Cunningham, Lennar Portland’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing, highlights the appeal of Autumn Sunrise, stating, “For busy professionals, established or growing families, or those simply looking to settle into a tranquil and welcoming neighborhood, Autumn Sunrise is the perfect place to put down roots and call home.”
Autumn Sunrise homes range from approximately 1,764 to 3,180 square feet, featuring up to five bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms. Each floorplan is thoughtfully designed for contemporary living, with modern finishes, open living areas for entertaining, fully equipped kitchens, spacious owner’s suites, and energy-conscious features.
One of the standout features of Autumn Sunrise is the inclusion of Next Gen floorplans. These innovative designs offer a main home alongside an attached private suite with a separate entrance, living area, kitchenette, bedroom, bathroom, and laundry facilities. The flexibility of this space allows homeowners to accommodate various needs such as aging parents, boomerang kids, homeschooling, a home gym, or other unique requirements.
Beyond the homes themselves, Autumn Sunrise offers a range of onsite amenities for homeowners to enjoy. Walking trails, parks with picnic tables, and pickleball courts provide opportunities for recreation and relaxation. The beautiful Willamette Valley setting also offers access to local vineyards, golf courses, and the picturesque Tualatin River for swimming and outdoor activities. Additionally, popular dining spots and premier shopping destinations like Bridgeport Village are just a short distance away.

Schwinn is Forecasting Fun with Launch of New Compact E-Bike for Teens – Meet The Hurricane
MADISON, Wis./PRNewswire/ — Today, Schwinn Bikes announces the launch of the Hurricane, a compact e-bike that’s all about fast-moving fun. Built for cruising home from school, going on weekend rides, or exploring at the edge of town, the Hurricane creates the kind of excitement that brings friends together.
Schwinn has been making e-bikes since 2017, but this is their first geared toward a younger Gen Z demographic. Boasting a 250-watt motor, this e-bike allows riders to reach top speeds of 17.5 miles per hour with just a twist of the throttle. Drawing inspiration from the original 1978 Schwinn Hurricane, this compact e-bike features retro touches like high-rise handlebars, fat tires, and a sleek yet industrial frame design that conveys a sense of daring adventure to a new generation of young riders.
Schwinn Hurricane E-Bike Features:
- Two Ways to Go: Reach a top speed of 17.5 MPH with just a twist of the throttle. The Hurricane also features pedal assist for riders who feel like pedaling instead.
- Range: The Hurricane can travel up to 30 miles on a single charge. Use the included charger and a standard household outlet to recharge for the next ride.
- Ride Control: Mechanical disc brakes deliver all-condition stopping power, while 3-inch-wide tires provide plenty of stability and traction on or off the pavement.
- Safety: Automatic front and rear LED lights shine as soon as you power on the bike. See and be seen when you ride during the day or at night. The Hurricane also includes a chainguard to protect skin and clothing and fenders to keep you clean and dry from road spray.
“We are thrilled to provide a high quality, compact e-bike model that is affordable and fun,” said Lisa VanderMause, VP of Marketing at Schwinn. “Taking nods from our Hurricane model from the 70s, this new, electric version really speaks to our brand direction and provides consumers with an elevated and modern riding experience.”
The Hurricane is for riders aged 13 and up who are looking to outrun boredom on a ride that is cool-looking, fast, and can handle any adventure ahead. Consumers are advised to wear a helmet and be aware of their surroundings whenever riding the Hurricane. The Hurricane suggested retail price is $599 and is available at Schwinnbikes.com, DICK’S Sporting Goods, and Target. Link to purchase

Beware of the Fake USPS Text Message Scam: People Are Still Falling for It
Fake USPS text
In today’s digital age, scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and one of the latest trends is the fake USPS text message scam. As people rely more on delivery services, scammers are exploiting this trust to deceive unsuspecting individuals. Unfortunately, many are still falling victim to these scams, believing they are receiving legitimate messages from the United States Postal Service.
What Is the Scam?
The scam typically involves a text message that appears to be from USPS, informing recipients of a package delivery issue or requesting confirmation of delivery details. These messages often include a link that leads to a fraudulent website designed to steal personal information, such as credit card numbers, addresses, and other sensitive data.
Common messages may read something like:
“Your package could not be delivered. Please confirm your address here: [fake link].”
How to Spot a Fake Message
To avoid falling victim to this scam, it’s essential to know how to differentiate between legitimate USPS messages and fraudulent ones. Here are some key indicators to watch out for:
- Sender Information: Legitimate USPS messages will often come from a recognizable number or email address, while scam messages may use unfamiliar or random numbers.
- Urgency and Threats: Scammers often create a sense of urgency, claiming that immediate action is required. Be wary of messages that pressure you to act quickly.
- Links: Avoid clicking on any links in unsolicited messages. Instead, visit the official USPS website directly to check the status of your package or any notifications.
- Grammar and Spelling Errors: Many scam messages contain awkward phrasing or grammatical mistakes. Legitimate communications from USPS are typically well-written.
- Request for Personal Information: USPS will never ask for sensitive personal information via text. If a message requests such information, it is likely a scam.
- Website Domains: Remember, USPS is a government agency and will use a .gov address for its official communications. If you see a .com or any other domain in the link, it is likely fraudulent.
What to Do If You Receive a Suspicious Message
If you receive a text message that you suspect is a scam, do not engage with it. Here’s what you can do:
- Do Not Click Links: Avoid clicking on any links in the message.
- Verify with USPS: Visit the official USPS website or call their customer service to verify any claims made in the message.
- Report the Scam: You can report the scam to the USPS by forwarding the message to 7726 (SPAM) or contacting your local postal inspector.
Stay Informed
It’s crucial to stay informed about the latest scams and reporting any suspicious activity. Educating friends and family about these scams can help prevent further victims from falling prey to these deceptive tactics.
Remember, when in doubt, always verify through official channels. Protect yourself and your information by being vigilant and cautious.
The fake USPS text message scam is a reminder of the importance of scrutiny in a world where digital communication is commonplace. By knowing the signs of a scam and taking appropriate action, you can help safeguard your personal information and avoid becoming a victim. Stay safe and informed!
