Davidson Racing & McKenzie Rage at the River!

Monday, January 8th, 2018

Purl’s Sheet Metal & Air Conditioning is a sponsor for Davidson Racing in the 2017 McKenzie’s Rage at the River Race, which was held in Laughlin, NV, this past Dec 7–9. Several of our Purl’s Sheet Metal team participated in this off-road racing event as owners and drivers.

Racers, pit crews, and spectators packed the town for this off-road extravaganza. And it was the perfect sunny weekend for an off-road race! Over 300 entrants participated in the 12-mile tight racing course. The event included three days of racing, including qualifying, a fun run, and heat races. It was the perfect venue for SNORE (Southern Nevada Off-Road Enthusiasts) to wrap up their 2017 season of racing.

Davidson Racing closed off the weekend with Beans Davidson finishing 8th in Class 12 and Kurt Davidson Jr. finishing in the top 20 of his class of 50 entrants! The team is looking forward to their next race in February of 2018.

Purl’s Sheet Metal & Air Conditioning creates custom sheet metal for many local race teams in our Central Valley. We are proud to support all types of racing and helping our local teams bring to life their custom sheet metal designs and ideas.

Coats for Kids Campaign for Dec 2017 Was a Great Success!

Wednesday, January 3rd, 2018

Purl’s Sheet Metal wrapped up our 2017 Coats for Kids drive with a total collection of over 240 coats. Coats were collected by our customers, employees, the kids at Lincoln Elementary School, and students at Madera Community College. We appreciate all the donations! We have customers come through our front door with an arm full of coats! This has been a very cold winter and every coat collected was desperately needed.

All of the coats collected stayed in Madera County and were distributed by our local Salvation Army Office. What a great way to celebrate successful Coats for Kids drive in Madera and we look forward to another great year in 2018.

Coats for Kids 2017

Start saving those winter coats from last year! Winter months are on the horizon and will be here soon. Don’t throw away any coats that are too small for your kids! We accept gently used or new coats and jackets. All donations stay in our own community and help children in our area.

Purl’s Sheet Metal & Air Conditioning is proud to join Kiss Country (KSKS 93.7 FM) and the Salvation Army as a collection location for the 2017 Coats for Kids drive. Each year the community and local businesses work with the Salvation Army to collect gently used or new winter coats to keep kids warm in the cold winter months.

For more than 30 years this campaign has brought together organizations, schools, businesses and members of the community with the single goal to donate to children in need. Kiss Country has been part of Coats for Kids in the Central Valley for more than 20 years. Their efforts to bring this issue and coat drive to the forefront, has made a real difference in the lives of so many young children.

We are open to the public as drop off location for coats Monday – Friday from 8am-5pm. We encourage our customers and members of the community to get involved and help keep the kids in our Valley warm. Our goal is to help collect hundreds of coats in the hope that no child will have to be cold!
