FIRE PREVENTION WEEK:

October is Fire Prevention Month October 6th-12th was recognized as Fire Prevention Week. We have great admiration and appreciation for the incredible sacrifice and dedication made by our local first responders every day. We couldn't think of a better time than Fire Prevention Week to visit local fire departments to deliver cases of bottled water to those brave men and women who keep our communities safe. In addition to cases of water, we also delivered boxes of our SERVPRO "Care Kits" to several local departments. These "Care Kits" contain personal hygiene products which are to be distributed to those who have been displaced from their homes following a fire.

It was great meeting and catching up with so many members of our local fire departments. Thank you to our first responders for all you do. We're incredibly grateful for your service!

2024 Pumpkin Fest!

The Keene Pumpkin Festival is a staple event in our local community. Originally, the Keene Pumpkin Festival ran from 1991 to 2014. Several times, the event captured the Guinness World Record for most lit jack-o-lanterns in one place. The record culminated in 2013 when the town saw over 30,000 lit pumpkins! After a hiatus for several years, the Keene Pumpkin Festival has returned to beautiful Downtown Keene, NH.

A supporter of the Keene Pumpkin Festival for many years, SERVPRO® Team Paul was thrilled to once again get behind this county wide event. This year, SERVPRO® of Team Paul contributed by sponsoring a local school who carved pumpkins for display at the event. We had a blast working alongside staff members from Mt. Caesar Elementary School (Swanzey, NH) loading all the incredibly carved pumpkins by their students and transporting them to Keene! We also assisted with setting up the pumpkins on shelving along Main Street. The students did a tremendous job carving!

We are so proud to support this local community tradition!
