Day 2: Petawawa Showcase

Saturday, September 13, 2008, and the early morning is dawning cloaked in fog. The Showcase, a major local consumer show, started yesterday in the Petawawa Civic Centre. Visitors came in a steady stream and perused the booths showing everything from foods, a Snowbird plane, hot tubs, HVAC equipment, travel services, financial planning, to military-related organizations and support.

My team-mate, Teresa, is based in Petawawa, and it made perfect sense for me to travel here to help her out - partly because I knew that running a booth over 3 days takes at least 2 people, but mostly because I wanted to help her make a successful splash in the area. With so many ladies being left behind to hold the fort while their guys are called away to military installations abroad, I forecast a burst of interest in Tomboy Tools this weekend.

Wouldn't it be nice to have one more support network available when your other half is away? Tomboy Tools can be a way to meet other women and give you a opportunity to find the resources needed to take care of your home. It can even be a great business that will fit with YOUR schedule. While offering people an opportunity to invest in great tools to help care for their home, you'll be helping others to network, share information, support each other, and gain self-confidence. We all do this for different reasons... and get paid for it! How nice is that?!

Today the Showcase runs from 10am to 6pm. Tomorrow it's from 10am to 5pm. And it's FREE to get in!

Come see Teresa and I in the Tomboy Tools booth! We have a wide selection of our tools on display, ready for you to try them out.

We hope to see you there!
