Pendleton, Oregon
Pendleton has very decent weather for the area, it is a very patriotic town and we see it growing. It's annual fair and rodeo brings in about 1/2 million people over the week long event and it is nearby many other smaller towns such as, Mission, Helix, Athena, Rieth, Weston, Adams and Milton-Freewater.

Pendleton, Oregon is a great city for WashGuys and
we could certainly go for a great franchisee there. The market is actually nearby several
other small areas and many rural farm communities. We believe a 40 mile radius of the area
would provide a most excellent market for WashGuys. 
The city itself gets much income from travelers and tourists which
come and spend money there as they travel from Walla Walla Washington to the I-84. Many
people use I-84 from Boise to Portland. It is a major truck route as well. The city is
very well run and the tax base is lower than in most parts of OR and certainly half that
of it's neighboring Washington cities. As a matter of fact the city is using some
high-tech methods to increase well water supplies and number of containments per million
in the spring wells just East of the city. Either way Wash guys could easily pick up water
at Milton Freewater along the main river if things got tough, so we are very bullish on
the city of Pendleton.
