Hi Everyone,
Good news all around. First, as you can see, construction on our new buildings is about to begin. Here is a picture taken yesterday of our crew installing the radiant heat under our 11,000 s.f. showroom.
The building that you see in the back is our warehouse that somehow was left untouched by the fire. We consider ourselves very lucky that this buidling survived. It is being used as a temp. showroom until the new one is finished.
Also, inventory, like this load of barnboard, has been arriving daily.
We have started to update our website. www.noreast1.com
This past weekend our staff participated in a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. Together "Team Noreast" raised over $4500, and that number is still climbing! If anyone would like to sponsor us there is still time. Just click on this link... http://main.acsevents.org/site/TRpg=team&fr_id=11207&team_id=272136
And last but not least, we have two new mascots!!
As anyone who ever visited our store before the fire knows, Nor'East was home to 3 cats, Jack, Lilly and Caesar. "The Kids" as I liked to call them were members of the Nor'East family, and they added a unique element to our business. They loved to greet customers at the door and lead them on a little tour of the showroom. Sadly, all three died in our fire, and while their loss was devistating, we realize that life, along with business, must go on. So please allow me to introduce Sophie and Simon. Both are Maine Coon kittens, and Sophie is directly related to Lilly (which just makes me feel good!)
Well thats it for now...watch the website for updates!! and THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us during this difficult time.
Best,
Donna
