Sno Bowl Promotion
sno_bowl_130wThis month we've got a really fun and, I think, interesting promotion. The New Hampshire Motor Speedway is making moves to become a year round destination. (Apparently it's the only track of eight that Mr. Smith owns that can take advantage of the snow and the cold New England temperatures). Their first attempt in this new direction will be on February 20-21 when they will hold their "first" snowmobile "Sno Bowl". This two day event should be exciting and lots of fun. And to help you enjoy it, we've created a promotion that will help you earn tickets for both you and a companion. All you have to do between January 15 and February 15th is purchase either a Trio boiler or either a Plug or Pipe N Go, a Rinnai product, or any three PurePro faucets. It's pretty simple. Once you've purchased any of these products, log on to fwwebb.com, select the Sno Bowl option, enter your account number and the invoice where you purchased the qualifying product, and print out the voucher. Bring the voucher to the race track "Will Call" window, and they will issue you a pair of tickets per voucher.

We'll be working more with the N.H. Motor Speedway this year because we've become a corporate sponsor. While you're at the race, check out Frank Webb's Bath House! With close to eighty acres of campground for RVs, they desperately needed a bath house, so now they have one! It will be interesting over the next few years watching this facility transform. Don't be surprised to see concerts being held along with a whole slew of other family events. It's the only facility in the northeast that can handle 100,000 people.

F.W. Webb announces $9 million plan to locate in Springfield Memorial Park
F.W. Webb Company has announced plans to locate at the Springfield Memorial Industrial Park in East Springfield, will invest about $9 million in the project and create approximately 40 jobs. F.W. Webb Company announced that it will purchase 14.3 acres at the city-owned industrial park for $1 million, and will construct a twophase distribution center costing about $8 million. Each phase will be about 65,000 square feet. The industrial park is located on Performance Boulevard, off Roosevelt Avenue.

F.W. Webb is the largest distributor of plumbing, heating, cooling, and piping products in the Northeast, and will become the second tenant of the industrial park. The city purchased the land from Smith and Wesson in 2006, and secured its first tenant, Performance Food Group, in 2007. Local officials, including Mayor Domenic J. Sarno and Chief Development Officer John D. Judge, gathered at the industrial park, to welcome F.W. Webb during a press conference Tuesday.

The company will initially employ 20 people and is expecting to grow to 40 to 50 people over the next few years, said Ed J. Welch, F.W. Webb's regional manager in Methuen. Most of the jobs will pay between $12.50 per hour for warehouse work to the low-$20 range, Welch said. The distribution center will be built in two phases, expected to beging in the spring.

The company will continue to operate smaller plants in Northampton and Greenfield, and is also opening new sites in Hyannis and Boston. "We are thrilled to have a blue chip company like F.W. Webb announce expansion plans for a facility in our city," Sarno said.
