Fire at NRC conversions

Around here the unincorporated places and others (even those completely surrounded by a village or city with municipal water) have well and septic tank so there are no municipal hydrants near them. And the huge cost to add sewer and water has many of those residents voting against installing/connecting when it comes up.

Think our pumper trucks have some reserve water capacity but I don't think we have any tanker trucks because of the municipal hydrants. Fire is bad, loss of goods is one part, but take a trip to a burn ward once, awful. Hope everyone gets thru it ok.

That is really bad news. Those guys are really great people. I have a new unit ordered, and the truck was set to arrive this week. I tried to call, but don't know if the phones are in service or not. I built my first coach when they were in a big barn in White Pigeon near where they are now. That was in the 90's. I think they did the first conversion and created this industry.

No fire sprinklers

For all of us loyal customers of NRC, they have a goal to be back open by the middle of May. Super stock racer Garrett Ghezzi was down there and talked with them. Only 1 motorhome was damaged in the fire. They got all the rest of them out. They also were able to save their computers and customer files. Their insurance company seems to be working very well for them including keeping their employees paid while they are off.


Thanks for this good news, Garrett!


Just thought I would pass the word along.
