It's very gratifying to show off the company to the world. She noted that during several days over the recent holidays, the pavilion attracted 1,000 visitors a day. Ms. Haydon said she often would see visitors waiting at the door at the start of the day. They have a little more time to spend,'' she said.
Some people come back just to look at the structure.
