 Louisville Builder Wins Dryvit “Trip To Anywhere” Sweepstakes

Rob Peterson presented with a $10,000 travel voucher in 2005

(West Warwick, Rhode Island) Dryvit Systems, Inc. has announced that Louisville builder Rob Peterson is the grand prize winner of its “Trip to Anywhere” sweepstakes held in January 2005 at the International Builders’ Show in Orlando, FL. Peterson, former president of the Home Builders Association of Louisville, has been awarded a travel voucher worth $10,000 to use toward a dream vacation of his choice.

“When we stopped at the Dryvit booth during the Builders’ Show, we noticed a crowd of people filling out entries for a ‘Trip to Anywhere’ contest.” says Peterson. “We went ahead and entered, but you never really expect to win anything.
 

So when Dryvit called to tell us the news, we were shocked, but it didn’t take us long to figure out where to go. My wife and I have always wanted to travel to Europe – thanks to Dryvit, we’ll be going sooner than we imagined.”

The sweepstakes was held over three days at the International Builders’ Show where Dryvit announced its new 30-year residential warranty. Peterson’s name was selected from 1,260 sweepstakes entries. Dryvit presented the $10,000 travel voucher to Peterson on April 26th at the Home Builders Association of Louisville. 

“We are very excited for Rob and his family, and we look forward to handing over the $10,000 voucher” says Tony Stall, Vice President, Marketing, of Dryvit Systems, Inc. “Our goal with this sweepstakes was to highlight the fact that by using Dryvit, you can achieve virtually any look on the exterior of a home that you desire; that in a design sense, we can take you anywhere you want to go.  The trip itself is a metaphor for what we offer the design and building community. The sweepstakes also enticed builders to learn about our exclusive new 30-year warranty for our premium residential systems.”
