POOL & SPA NEWS MISPRINT

The May 29th, 2009 edition of Pool & Spa News featured a section on pool and spa enclosures. Among the items that they highlighted....

This is a misprint. We discontinued our line of gazebos and pavilions in the Fall of 2008.

We are sorry for any confusion.

CPI HAVING PHONE/E-MAIL PROBLEMS

If you've had a difficult time calling and e-mailing Confer Plastics on Wednesday, April 15th, you are not alone. The phone lines and internet connections have been down most of the day -- as they have throughout the area -- due to an operational issue at the local Verizon center. This MAY continue into Thursday, but Verizon is hoping to have the problem rectified soon.
