2009 Greenfest Testimonials

I would like to say that of my many Home Shows that I do in this area, GREENFEST was without a doubt, the very best show of the 2009 year. Your efforts to bring quality GREEN Products to Architects, General Contractors, Electrical Contractors and Homeowners looking for more efficient ways to improve comfort in their homes. I've never had the amount of potential contacts and results from any of the shows over the past five years like GREENFEST. I will also add that SIGBA people did a fantastic job.

I would like to see a 2 day show, because potential customers are involved in a lot more during this time. You could see a larger amount of customers who have primary or secondary homes in the area. The flow of people was great, even with a little rain.

Thanks,
George Royce - President
Electric Radiant Heat & More


"Of all the SiGBA activities that I've participated in, I received the most leads from last year's Tahoe greenFEST. I'm still following up the business resulting from that event." (the testimonial was submitted to us in Nov 2009 and the event was in July)

John Cook- Clear Blue Construction



Greenfest 2009 was a great event, very well organized, and managed, with excellent attendance. We spoke to a number of folks that were extremely interested in our firm's products and services, with at least one that is progressing toward a contact for a nice project to break ground in late Spring.
We're looking forward to participating in Greenfest 2010, at the Kings Beach venue which should be even better than last year.

As a vendor in the first annual Tahoe Green Fest I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and the incredible volunteers at SiGBA for making it one of the best venues we have participated in to date.

Many thanks to Leanna Duncan for her seamless organization skills which made it easy for us to locate our vendor booth upon arrival in Tahoe City with tent, tables and chairs already in place and to obtain power thanks to the fabulous efforts of David Gemme.

Our companies made some very promising business contacts and believe the event was successful. Kit Carson Village / SAS Construction look forward to participation in the second annual Tahoe Green Fest.
