All in all the show was a great success. Major Storm and the rest the Storm Smart staff looks forward to meeting more of the public at a show near you soon.

There were nearly 200 people who registered for the Flat-Screen TV Giveaway at the Storm Smart booth during this past weekend’s Home & Garden Show in Punta Gorda, Florida. Bill and Barbara Howe filled out their name and contact information like everyone else, wondering if they could ever win such a prize.

Yesterday, there was a knock at their door and they were greeted with a smile, and a brand new VIZIO Flat-Screen TV! “Have you ever won anything before?” “No!” was their answer. They were obviously thrilled with the TV. Bill and Barbara said “We already have a place for it and it will be put to good use, thank you so much”.

The next opportunity to win such a prize will be at the Big Boy Tech & Toy Show to be held at Germain Arena on Sat Feb 13th and Sun Feb 14th. ‘Major Storm’ the Storm Smart Industries mascot will be there, along with temporary tattoos for the kids, and other fun, free items. The friendly people at Storm Smart hope to see you there.

Storm Smart Industries, the nation’s largest manufacturer of hurricane protection systems, has recently introduced a hurricane wind abatement system in Texas that is already a mainstay in Florida. The system and installation options are practical and easy to use. “It’s a flexible material that protects your home just as a bullet-proof vest protects the human body. Even though you take a hit, the bullet-prove vest keeps you alive. The Storm Catcher storm protection systems are based on the same principals”.

The article goes on to explain all of the benefits of all of the Storm Catcher hurricane screen systems in depth, and is aimed at educating the largest construction market in the country on the merits of our products. We’d like to say thanks to BMC and Warren for writing this article, and hope that those who read it find it informative.

“Are you sure? We never win anything” was the response when they received the call. They not only won the TV, but it was even personally delivered to their front door. George went on to say, “We were very pleased with the show and the professionalism of Storm Smart.”

Another Flat-Screen TV, just like the one the Winkler’s received will be given away again by Storm Smart Industries this weekend (Jan 16th & 17th) at the Home & Garden Show in the Charlotte Harbor Event & Conference Center located at 75 Taylor St in Punta Gorda. Stop by and meet Storm Smart’s mascot ‘Major Storm’. Every homeowner who visits the booth will receive one free opening of Storm Smart’s exclusive ‘No Tools Required’ Easy Screen or Slide Screen, just for stopping by.

In addition to registering for a FREE, new in the box VIZIO flat-screen TV that was on display, Storm Smart was offering visitors one free opening of their exclusive ‘No Tools Required’ Easy Screen or Slide Screen, just for stopping by. Frisbees, temporary tattoos of Major Storm, and inflatable noise-makers were going almost as fast as they could be handed out.

Storm Smart CEO Brian Rist, who attended the show over the weekend said, “This is one of the best, fun-filled shows we have ever had the pleasure to be a part of, and we truly look forward to having another great time at next weekend’s Home & Garden Show in Punta Gorda”.

The January 16th & 17th Home & Garden Show will be at the new Charlotte Harbor Event & Conference Center at 75 Taylor Street in Punta Gorda. Be sure to stop by and meet Major Storm!

Storm Smart CEO, Brian Rist, states “Storm Catcher has been the most popular product in our industry for many years, so we thought there would be no better way to celebrate the holiday season and ring in a new year than by doing something absolutely free! We wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah, from your friends at Storm Smart.”
