Time again for the annual Mass Gas Bash in Palmer Mass. Sept. 7th 2008 7a.m - 12p.m. This will be the 15th consecutive show.
Please help by attending this show, All shows in general have suffered a loss of attendance, 1st because of ebay, and now because of the Gas Prices. In order to keep this show going, we need the help of the buying public, Many vendors have been with us since the 1st annual, and many others have joined in, Vendors have never been the problem, there are always a large # with a variety of Signs, Cans, Pumps, etc. The decline has always been in the spectator attendance, With fewer spectators, vendors have fewer buyers, deals are always to be had at this show. LETS SAVE THIS SHOW, COME SUPPORT ALL THE VENDORS THAT DO COME WITH QUALITY MERCHANDISE YEAR AFTER YEAR. Thank You, Rick Rick Bankowski 978-939-8100 home 978-660-1720 cell Ron Baker 413-436-7097 Mass Gas, P.O. Box 9, E. Templeton, MA 01438

For those of you in this area the Mass Gas Bash is tops. I attended from the first year and for about 6 or 8 more. My wife and I always attended Brimfield swap meet and I would get over to Mass Gas, buy a bunch of signs, and then have to figure out how to get them home because we always flew out that afternoon. The show is well worth attending.

Mass Gas is still on Rain or Shine, We have just secured a major outdoor covered pavillion that is onsite and available for us to have some coverage in case it drizzles. In 15 years we have had only 1 rainy day on show day, the odds are in our favor, See you there, Rick
