(OTC: FGPR), is excited to celebrate Labor Day with a new, limited edition tank sleeve honoring our partnership with Operation BBQ Relief (OBR).

The new, limited-edition tank sleeve is the fourth in a series that was launched last year. It can be found wherever Blue Rhino tanks are sold at 60,000 retail stores nationwide. In addition to featuring Operation BBQ Relief, Blue Rhino has featured the International Rhino Foundation and created a special themed tank sleeve for Flag Day.
