August 13 - 22 we had a booth in the Skowhegan State Fair providing brochures and information for people as they passed through Constitution Hall. We had a pool filled with water with an EC40 filter system circulating the water and keeping it clean. "Diver Dave," the Hayward Above Ground automatic cleaner, scurried along the bottom of the pool entertaining the kids and keeping the pool crystal clean! All in all, the fair was a good place for us to get our name out to the local community, however, we were a bit disapointed with the lack of activities near the exhibition hall to draw the crowds to that portion of the fairgrounds. We are now looking forward to more exposure with the Windsor Fair (August 30 - September 7) and the Farmington Fair (September 20 - 26). These two fairs hold the promise of being very successful as they draw thousands of people to their events and activities. Our booths at each are very well placed to benefit from maximum foot traffic. Hope to see you there!

The hot tubs have arrived!
After much waiting and anticipation, the hot tubs have finally arrived today! The truck pulled into our parking lot at about 7am this morning. Jeff used his skid steer with fork extensions to lift the tubs out of the back of the truck and onto the ground. Then, 3 adults unwrapped them to check for damage and then get ready to bring them into our showroom through the new wide door. We carefully placed them inside in exact postions using dollies and good communication. Now, they are ready for you to come on in and admire the different colors and options available. One of them even has a TV/DVD built right in!! If you want to check them out online, you may do so at www.raindancehottubs.com

We won 1st place in the parade!
An exciting parade was enjoyed by thousands Saturday in downtown Wilton under pristine blue skies. The event: The Annual Wilton Blueberry Festival! We were one of 170 units to participate in the longest parade in Maine. Our float consisted of "Ma and Pa Blueberry from Wilton love their new Sunshine Pool" complete with a swimming pool being enjoyed by huge 8 foot balloons decorated to look like blueberries! Jeff drove the Sunshine Pools van which hauled the float. We had 7 kids dress with 5XL blue t-shirts stuffed with balloons to look like blueberries walking down Main Street! We also built a huge balloon sculpture that looked like a giant sunshine on the back of the float. What a great day!
