On Wednesday and Thursday, we visited the National Association of Home Builders expo at the Las Vegas Convention Center. There was certainly a lot of great information there, and we’re going to be posting about what we learned over the next weeks.
However, today we’re sharing some good news.
Last night we were contacted by the folks at the Lowes booth, saying that Welmoed’s name had been drawn for a prize, and they asked that we come back to the booth to pick it up if we were still in town. So we went back to the convention center this morning.
Unfortunately, our prize is too large to fit in our luggage:
Our prize from Lowes
Welmoed won a new 2010 Chevy Silverado!
This prize couldn’t have been timed better: we have been looking at purchasing a new company vehicle. Since our actual prize is an “allowance” towards the purchase price of any Chevy vehicle, we’ll be able to pick one best suited to the company’s needs, which will allow us to carry more specialized tools for inspections.
Welmoed was totally shocked when she learned her name was drawn from more than 6,000 entries. It probably won’t really sink in until we pick out the car we want and drive it home.
We’d like to thank Lowes for this wonderful prize!
