| Industry News |
From Gale Cousins Director of Sales & Customer Service, Woodland Scenics
Dear all,
As you may have heard we have experienced a fire here at Woodland Scenics and there is good
news and bad news. The good news is that no one was hurt during the fire or evacuation process.
The bad news is that it took out a couple of our manufacturing buildings. However, and
fortunately, there is more good news than bad.
We encompass multiple buildings that are spread out all over the town of Linn Creek. We only
lost two of those buildings and those two contained just a small portion of our manufacturing
facilities. Our shipping department, warehouse and corporate offices were spared any damage, as
were most of our manufacturing buildings, so it is business as usual.
Thanks for all your concerns.
So the news is not as bad as we feared. |

Woodland Scenics had a fire in their facilities today. More news as it is released.
