Monthly Archives: November 2010

Last week I faced defeat to Justin Caldwell from Saturday, November 20th game & treated the victor to lunch Wednesday, Nov 24th at Bubba Rays “Halifax’s best sports bar” http://bubbarays.com and of course wore his colors. Justin does a great job managing Trail Blazer’s inventory & purchasing requirements at Trail Blazer while maintaining the best relationship possible with our reliable suppliers and has been able to accomplish this despite his team choices. Justin and I make a wager on all Toronto versus Montreal games. See I am a big fan of the Maple Leafs http://mapleleafs.nhl.com and he chears for the Canadians http://canadiens.nhl.com. The next game is scheduled for Dec 11th - Wish me luck All the best, Shawn Levangie

Tammie Bowie was a valuable member of Trail Blazer’s team. She formed the backbone of our system before going on maternity leave. Coming back with a little bundle called Dillion (now 7 years old!!!). Not long after that Bad Darrell got a job in Alberta. He took Tammie with him and he hasn’t stopped there, after just completing 5 weeks of school and getting his boomtruck ticket (Great job Darrell!!!) Darrell & Tammie decided Dillion needed a little sister. The 2 kids are also busy - Dillon with school & hockey. Brianna with playschool & skating. I am please to announce the greatest news of the week that The Bowie family just found out that are going to be growing by 1 in May - congratulations!!! All the Best, Shawn Levangie

As the fall shows wrap up, I would like to thank all the sales reps who gave their time & efforts during the trade shows & booking the spring 2011 orders. Trail Blazer was repersented at 22 dist shows in the past 3 months by the following 9 represenatives. Ben Cumming , Billy Rauton , Brad Olles , Brock Rishworth , Dave Boudreau , Ed Schneider , Gary Menne , Jim Russell , & Monica Sears-Furlotte Also, Who is the Brave sole getting his hair cut at the Eddi’s show by Brock Rishworth? Or, Is this just another one of Mr Rishworth’s famous techniques to motivate a sale?
