1. An anchor system for anchoring a post to a concrete body, the post having a mounting flange with a plurality of bolt openings, the anchor system comprising:
a plate configured to be embedded in the concrete body with an upper surface of the plate immediately adjacent or exposed at a surface of the concrete body, the plate including a plurality of plate openings distributed around a perimeter of the plate to correspond to the bolt openings defined in the mounting flange of the post; and
a plurality of bolts corresponding to the plurality of plate openings, each of the plurality of bolts including an elongated shank with a threaded stem at one end and a bent portion at the opposite end, the elongated shank sized and configured to extend through a corresponding plate opening of the plurality of plate opening with said threaded stem above the upper surface of the plate to engage a corresponding one of the bolt openings defined in the mounting flange of the post, and sized and configured so that the bent portion is embedded in the concrete body when the plate is embedded in the concrete body,
wherein at least a portion of the elongated shank of each of at least one of the plurality of bolts, other than the threaded stem, includes a coating of a pre-cured elastomeric composition that has dampening properties; and
a threaded nut engaged on the threaded stem of each of said plurality of bolts to bear against the upper surface of the plate.
