MLA Barnett applauds Pioneer Log Homes!

Update - Watch Donna in the House speaking about Pioneer Log Homes here

Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett this morning in the BC Legislature during Members' Statements applauded the work of local business Pioneer Log Homes.  View her statement below:


It is a great pleasure to rise in the House today and speak about a wonderful locally-owned business in Williams Lake, Pioneer Log Homes. For decades Pioneer has been known throughout the Cariboo for building beautiful log homes made from quality locally-sourced products. However, as of late Pioneer gained a whole lot of attention around the world thanks to their new hit reality show, Timber Kings, airing Sunday nights on HDTV Canada and on Discovery Channel in the United States.

Now, don't get me wrong. I don't just love the show because it showcases Williams Lake, and the Cariboo-Chilcotin; I love the show because it tells a B.C. success story. For over 30 years Pioneer Log Homes founder and owner, Brian Reid Sr., spent years building a business from the ground up through hard work using his incredible skilled craftsmanship in developing the process to design, assemble and construct some of the most magnificent homes you could ever imagine. Every step of building a log home requires hand craftsmanship and taking the time to build a quality product, using natural products that will last for decade, withstanding the elements of Mother Nature.

I will also mention that Pioneer Log Homes is a great job creator in Williams Lake, creating cabinetmakers, carpenters and designers. Now, with a TV crew, producers and support staff that come along with this reality show, the local Williams Lake economy is already seeing a boost.

If you haven't been able to watch the show yet, be sure to set a reminder to your PVR and watch the Timber Kings crew tackle their next project using their incredible skills and talents, building magnificent log homes for buyers around the world.
