I am happy to report that there were no pranks played or jokes pulled on me on April 1st (April Fools Day) - although I always enjoy a good joke. Here at my office in Buffalo, NY it's mild but cool about 36°F (that's 2°C) with occasional rain. Winter, please be over with!
This past week I have spent some time contacting prospective exhibitors for the Massachusetts Self Storage Association's (MASSA) annual Trade Show which is May 19th. I am on the board and have to say I am very pleased with the way this great event, the largest in the Northeast is shaping up. We anticipate yet another super show. I especially look forward to dining with a friend and colleague Mr. Aaron Alsweiler as StorMan has graciously agreed to exhibit and provide a show sponsorship as well.
It's early to declare a trend but the signs indicate a definite uptake in terms of rental inquiries and rentals. It's always a happy time when I review the weekly key statistics reports for our 31 locations and see positive numbers! This makes me hopeful that 2011 will be a better more robust year than the last several which were not terrible but could always be better.
Keep up the great work StorMan team!

Charlie Fritts, CPM (Chief Operating Officer,
