Tropical Storm Hanna No Match for Our Nama!




This weekend (September 4,5,6 and 7th), our very own Barbara Mullen (also referred to as "Nama" by her grandchildren and, now adopted by Premier employees), will be tending our tent and new vehicle display at the North Haven Fair (http://www.northhaven-fair.com/). The North Haven Fair gets "hundreds of thousands" of visitors over a 4 day period. Premier Subaru has been a part of this fair for 9 years. For all of these 9 years, Barbara has been setting up our "always festive" and "extremely informative" portible car dealership at the fair! It is a great way for customers and "want to be customers" to get introduced to the Subaru product line and to us. Countless people now know "Barbara from the Fair"! In addition to the thousands of people who are introducing themselves to us for the first time, hundred of customers always stop by and say hello. (Or, do all these people drop by to enjoy Barbara's alway ready supply of candy).

Well, in anticipation of Tropical Storm Hanna, who decided to arrive right in the middle of our fair activities, Barbara is not there on Saturday the 6th. Not that she didn't want to be. She did. But, of course, I told her to skip it as she really shouldn't be out in the middle of a tropical storm, under a tent. Plus, as a sidebar, I am sure that there is some sort of OSHA regulation prohibiting car salespeople from being outside during the middle of a tropical storm at a muddy fairgrounds and trying to keep dry under a "largely metal" tent!

Well, don't fear! On Sunday, September 7th, Barbara will be back at the Fair and in our Portable Dealership (fancy way of saying "tent") and looking for all of her customers, and those applying for a position as a customer, to stop by and say "hi"! If you can't make it to the North Haven Fair - please stop and see us in two weeks at the Guilford Fair!
