Rutherfordton Woman Wins 22kw Home Standby Generator by Generac through Winterfest at Tryon International presented by Stuller Power Solutions
For Immediate Release
Mill Spring, NC - February 10, 2024 - Winterfest presented by Stuller Power Solutions offered attendees who visited Tryon International’s drive-through light show November 17-December 31, 2023 a unique opportunity: spot the Grinch before he could turn off the lights, scan the QR code, and enter to win a free generator.
More than 7,000 entrants participated in the giveaway, and Meghan Crews of Rutherfordton, NC was the lucky winner of the 22kw Home Standby Generator by Generac, on offer from Stuller Power Solutions.
“It was absolutely flabbergasting [to win],” said Crews. “I didn’t expect it at all! We’ve been going through the lights every year since [Tryon International] started it up. The kids love it and it’s something that we can always enjoy together. I’m not one of those people who wins a lot of things. This has been amazing for us. It’s just incredible!”

Crews and her family have been frequent attendees to events at Tryon International, she continued.
“We’ve gone to the Steeplechase, Saturday Night Lights, and take the kids to ride the carousel when it’s open. If Scott and I want a date night, this is where we come. We’re right down the road, so it’s the closest place. It’s really been a great experience for us.”
Brian and Kyle Stuller were on hand Friday, January 9 to present the generator to Crews, and Brian Stuller emphasized how proud that Stuller Power Solutions was to be able to offer the giveaway. “It means a lot to be able [to give the generator]. Turns out, it’s been a rough year for her [Meghan Crews], so we feel really good about that.”
The partnership between Tryon International and Stuller Power Solutions has been beneficial for business as well, Stuller continued. “The giveaway was a great success - we had over 7,000 entries and over 1,400 people requested site visits. We are still calling them back! This partnership has been a huge success for our business.”
The sponsorship of Winterfest at Tryon International was a huge success for nonprofit fundraising as well, made possible by Tryon Cares presented by Duke Energy. On January 25, Stuller Power Solutions and Tryon International were able to present a check of nearly $9,000 to Safelight, with a portion of tickets from each vehicle traveling through the light show donated back to the Western North Carolina nonprofit.
