A Sound Objective

When I decided to build several hundred feet of waterproof electrical outlet stringers for outdoor events over the last few years I never imagined the live event industry would be shut down and my gear would be sitting idle in storage. But it turns out I would still have use for all these specialty electrical boxes as a temporary donation for the barns on the Petaluma Fairgrounds where NorCal Livestock Evacuation was housing displaced animals from all over the county. Local volunteers were bringing house fans to keep the animals cool in their pens and I happened to see a request here on facebook for fans and cords. I realized that most people would not have anything more than household grade extension cords and power strips, stuff that likely would not pass an inspection for outdoor "wet" locations, especially when trying to string together 100 feet or more from a single outlet. My donation came a little late in the fire season but now that I realize this will be a need in the future I will make a point of expanding this inventory so that I have plenty available to donate in future years, even when live events are back in full swing. I also went out and bought a large 20" industrial shop fan and will eventually purchase several more exclusively for this purpose. These annual fires are just devastating to so many people and animals. Whatever we can each do to ease the burden still matters greatly.🖖🙏💪

NorCal Livestock Evacuation and Support would like to give an overdue shout out to Paul, owner of A Sound Objective for going above and beyond to meet the needs of NorCal Livestock Evac and Sonoma-Marin Fairgrounds & Event Center during the . Heeding our request for extension cords and fans, Paul not only provided for that need, but went above and beyond to bring AND set up the very best and safest equipment available to keep all the animals cool and comfortable while they were evacuated. To say we were floored is an understatement. Thank you so very much, Paul and everyone else who loaned us fans and cords! We are immensely appreciative- as were the animals!!!!
