I got an e-mail from my supplier, which was an official release from the company, and it reads.

Dear all,



As you may have heard we have experienced a fire here at Woodland Scenics and there is good news and bad news. The good news is that no one was hurt during the fire or evacuation process. The bad news is that it took out a couple of our manufacturing buildings. However, and fortunately, there is more good news than bad.



We encompass multiple buildings that are spread out all over the town of Linn Creek. We only lost two of those buildings and those two contained just a small portion of our manufacturing facilities. Our shipping department, warehouse and corporate offices were spared any damage, as were most of our manufacturing buildings, so it is business as usual.



Thanks for all your concerns.



Respectfully,

Big company like that? I would think it would be a given that they do. As they said...it was bad, but only a small portion of their manufacturing, so business as usual.

At worst they'll probably be a little slow for a while or certain products will be in short supply for a time.
