EDMONTON, Alberta, Aug. 9, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Lindal Cedar Homes, the leading provider of custom cedar post-and-beam homes since 1945, will be honoring dealer company Alberta Custom Cedar Homes with the Founder's Circle Award on August 12. This award program was launched in February by Sir Walter Lindal who wanted a way to personally honor the dedication and service of Lindal's top dealers. "This company means so much to me," says Lindal, who founded the company 61 years ago in 1945. "We have such an amazing group of dealers who represent this company impeccably -- I wanted to find a way to express my gratitude personally, and honor their hard work."
A relatively new addition to the Lindal dealer representatives, Alberta Custom Cedar Homes has been a top producer from its inception in 1997. Owners John Manning and Trevor Reay exemplify hard work and dedication with the numerous new Lindal homes that are going up in lake communities, farms and other areas all around Edmonton. Manning and Reay pride themselves on the service they provide customers, including free building site visits, financial feasibility studies, custom design services, building contractor evaluation and building permit assistance. "We're thrilled to receive the Founder's Circle Award," says Reay. "Lindal has been a great company to be involved with -- the success of our company speaks volumes about the product."
The event will be held at the Alberta Custom Cedar Homes model home in Edmonton, Canada, where Sir Walter Lindal will present Manning and Reay with the award.
