EXETER — Funsport Recreation
has moved to Exeter.
The business, located on Main
Street held their open house Feb.
10.
Funsport Recreation was previ-
ously in St. Marys for a few months
but moved mainly because Country
Corners Rent -All is in Exeter.
Co-owner of Funsport Recreation
Jamie King says," It's a good idea to
group these businesses together."
King says Funsport Recreation
carries different products than
Country Corners Rent -All and for
anyone travelling out of town they
are able to check out more than one
store.
"We don't really overlap each
other," adds King.
Funsport Recreation is co -owned
by Andre Hendriksen and King,
Chad McCrudden and Mike
Szymanowski of KMS Motorsports
Inc.
It is the first dealership in Canada
to carry the Patriot line of ATV'S
and dirt bikes, according to King.
"Patriot is the first to offer a five
year warranty on ATV's and dirt
bikes in the industry," King says.
The business also sells clothing
accessories and plans on adding
snowmobiles and snow blowers
next season.
Hendriksen says he is pleased to
be in Exeter.
"Yes, I'm very excited. I'm looking
forward to meeting people in
Exeter."
