November 2009

Congratulations to Douglas Schiller with Redwood Electric Cooperative on winning the October on-line drawing for October. Thanks for participating and enjoy the tow rope. Our monthly drawing will continue again in December, check back then for a chance to win!

We want to thank Dick Hilderbrand, Bill Putnam, and Tony Perelli from the Yale Cordage group for their efforts to make the trip all the way from Maine to South Dakota for a visit. And, also for their over generous gift of Maine lobsters to our employees. They discussed several new innovative products that we will be letting our customers know about in the near future. Please take time to visit the Yale website linked from our products page. 

We are starting to plan for our upcoming annual rigging conference that will take place in February of 2010. We are glad to announce that one of our favorite presenters, Michael Gelskey of Lift-It Mfg., will be participating once again. His presentations are not only educational, but also very entertaining. We will be posting information regarding the conference in the coming months, so check back and book early.

With the holidays fast approaching, we want to take the time to thank our many loyal customers for their support in 2009 and wish you all a safe and happy holiday season. 

Don't forget to inspect your rigging, fall arrest equipment, and tools before each and every
use. The life it saves, may be yours!
