Dear Members,

As of around 1:00PM today our Vassar office has been closed due to a major power outage in Vassar.  It appears someone decided to cut down a VERY LARGE tree without first thinking about WHERE the tree would land.  Unfortunately, the tree landed on a power line behind our office (in downtown Vassar) which then took out several transformers and damaged a few electric poles.

Since approximately 1:00PM we have been without Power and Telephone service at our office.  If you have attempted to call us, you are most likely getting a "fast busy" signal during the call.  I have spoken with one of the DTE linesmen that are now on the scene, and he has expressed that the repairs will take a "very long time" in order to get power restored to a large portion of the downtown area.

Because of this issue we closed our office early today.  We will check the status of the power situation in the morning to determine if we will be able to re-open at 9:30AM under our normal hours of operation.  If there is any problem with the power in the morning I will post an update here on the Members page.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause any of you and hope that everyone understands that this situation is well beyond our control.

NOTE:  THIS POWER/PHONE OUTAGE DOES NOT EFFECT ANYTHING RELATED TO OUR INTERNET SERVICE CONNECTIONS.  IT IS STRICTLY AN ISSUE WITH OUR VASSAR BUSINESS OFFICE.

Thank you for your patience.

Sincerely,
Charles Partridge
