Parksite Open House A Success Thanks to You


On June 24th, Parksite South Windsor hosted close to 125 customers to share in great food and entertainment. The event was roughly on the anniversary of a similar event held 5 years ago. “We know times have changed dramatically since then,” states Keven Crotty, Sales Manager for Parksite, “but that doesn’t mean it is any less important to take time to thank our customers and spend some time together in a fun environment outside the daily grind.”

The event included a DJ who provided great music to keep the mood light; but the focal point of entertainment was the Jeff Gordon #24 race car and racing simulator. Whether you are a fan of racing or not, sitting inside a real NASCAR and having the chance to see what racing is really like is something that can be enjoyed by many. In addition to the entertainment was a great menu of steak, chicken, and New England lobster. Some may have made the trip just for the lobster, but we are still glad you came!

The event did have some business elements to it as lumber dealers had the chance to interact face to face with many of Parksite’s key suppliers and also with some members of Parksite management from outside the New England area. In addition, dealers were able to tour through the facility and see what Parksite can offer from both a capacity and logistics stand point. “We are proud of our facility and our logistics team did a great job getting it prepared for the event,” mentioned Crotty, “it’s important to show our customers that we are here for the long haul and will do what is necessary to support them.”

Parksite would like to thank the vendors who participated and displayed their products at the event. Most importantly Parksite would like to thank our customers, many of which traveled a good distance to attend the event. Your support means a lot and we hope to always reciprocate by doing our best to supply you with quality building products. We hope you enjoyed the event and welook forward to a continued partnership.
