Creative Gazebos Selected as Gazebo of Choice for US Government Contract for Third Year in a Row

Creative Gazebos by Limerock Gazebos has been selected on the basis of price, quality and selection to provide Gazebos to US military and base locations for a third consecutive year. Gazebos are effective and attractive structures which serve well as event and waiting areas, employee break structures, and for adding a bit of charm and scenic relief.

Limerock Gazebos, an Amish gazebo manufacturer in the heart of Amish country, Lancaster County Pennsylvania, was awarded a renewed contract for supplying and making gazebos available to US military bases for another year, and was awarded this contract through their dealer network and association with Specialty Prefab.

"We chose Creative Gazebos (Limerock Gazebos line) for their quality," says Eric Kinney of Specialty Prefab. "Their kits have always been easy to set up, and the 2012 kits and product are the best we've found. They are perfect for our government customers, because they're built to last."

Gazebo owners can select between wood or vinyl, and can cover the sides with screens or windows. Just covering three sides facing the most common wind direction is usually sufficient. Because side covers are held in place by two vertical slats it's a simple task to set them up as needed. Vinyl gazebos are similarly equipped.

There is a long history of using gazebos as a quick-to-set-up structure on military bases. Over the years, a few stories have developed surrounding them. Kinney recounts one story regarding gazebos and the "that's how it's always been done" mentality... such as the regular posting of a guard at the Fort Monroe Army Base's gazebo. When the question came up asking what the purpose for the guard was, the answer was "that's the way it's always been."

It turns out that, after investigating the matter further, the original posting of the guard was because the gazebo had been freshly painted and they didn't want anyone accidentally messing up the wet paint.

Limerock says of the Creative Gazebos  product line: "They're versatile, attractive, strong and easy to set up. The kits ship to our dealers and can be quickly set up with with easy to follow plans, and come expertly packaged and protected for shipping, usually on a single pallet."

Limerock has been manufacturing and distributing their Gazebo designs nationally through their dealer network for over 20 years. "It's a family business," says Ben Stoltzfus of Limerock, who started the business himself. Over the years Limerock gazebos has added to their original gazebo kits product line and offers pergolas, pergola kits, and other outdoor wood structures for almost any need.
