Open House Memories



 A couple of weeks ago on June 2nd we had our big annual Open House here at Wood-Tex Products. It was a grand event with plenty to do for everyone! Customers enjoyed browsing the large selection of in-stock structures, from gazebos to fully furnished modular log homes. Even the children had fun running in and out of sheds and playing in the miniature horsebarn.

There was a lot more happening outdoors too with barrel rides and candy drops for the kids and delicious food for everyone. Many folks enjoyed the helicopter rides too! I was pretty excited about the opportunity for a helicopter ride myself but from eight o’ clock when the doors opened until 5:30 when the last happy customer departed there was hardly a moment to look up at the hubbub outside because of all the activity indoors!  

During one particularly long sale the children of the family were kept encouraged by thoughts of fun in the bouncy house when their parents where through.

There was lots of excitement in the air and all together it was a great day. The best thing though was not the activities, food, or music but the satisfaction of assisting so many people in seeing their needs met and visions realized. Whether it was reclaiming a garage by clearing out storage items, or designing a custom pool house or studio workshop people were excited to be adding order to their lives and meeting their goals. And that’s what it’s all about!

There was barrel rides for the kids (but the adults had a lot of  fun on this too!)
100% of the proceeds from food was donated to Fair Play Boys Camp.  A total of $2,737.05 was raised!

And the homemade ice cream was too good to let even the smallest amount go to waste =]
