Leonard; Boca Bay Racing Give Back
To Owens Corning In Toledo
Toledo, Ohio - - ARCA RE/MAX Series Rookie-of-the-Year contender Johnny
Leonard knows all about giving back. Last year, four hurricanes swept through
his home state of Florida causing devastation for hundreds of miles including
his home city of Cape Coral.
Leonard, owner of Affordable Roofing began the rebuilding process
immediately following one of mother’s nature’s deadliest threats but he didn’t do it
alone. Owens Corning, one of the largest shingles providers for roofing
companies in the United States dug deep and helped Leonard give back to his
community.
“We are one of Owens Corning’s largest clients,�?? explained the driver of
the No. 13 Boca Bay Builders-Affordable Roofing Chevrolet Monte Carlo. “They
helped me around the clock supplying the materials to repair the roofs of the
hurricane victims, now it’s time to give back to them.�??
While Leonard’s roofing operation has finally caught up from the
devastation, they must prepare for this season’s possible threats, but the Boca Bay
Racing team along with Leonard plan to honor Owens Corning’s help from last year
by placing their decals on the No. 13 Chevrolet Monte Carlo this weekend.
“It’s not much, but I really appreciate what they have done for us,�?? said
Leonard. “Even now after the hurricanes have passed, Owens Corning is still
our largest supplier. We are using them for our every day jobs and even the
new constructions with Boca Bay Builders, I’m excited to see their logo on our
car this weekend.�??
Owens Corning will serve in the rear quarter TV panels this weekend along
with taking one of Leonard’s in-car camera shots for the fifth event of the
season on Sunday.
“We hope that Owens Corning truly understands that they were a part in
helping everyone recover from the hurricanes and hope they are able to enjoy the
exposure they’ll receive this weekend,�?? concluded Leonard.
