The vinyl is installed in the kitchen and two baths for Unit B in
Farmington, future home of the Jennifer Pare family.  Workers from Tri-City
Flooring of Somersworth came out in 100 degree weather Friday to get the job done and
keep us on schedule.  The vinyl was certainly pliable!  Tri-City flooring has worked with SENH Habitat for Humanity for years, donating labor, vinyl, and carpet padding.   Additionall,y they give us very
good pricing on carpet and laminate.  Roy the owner and all employees are a pleasure to work with.

On July 4th, SENH HFH Administrative Assistant Anne Phipps and volunteers Dale Delory and Jess Phillips participated in the annual Rotary Club of Durham-Great Bay July 4th celebration held at Cowell Stadium.  Anne, Dale and Jess provided several activities for the kids - decorating birdhouses, building bird feeders and building bulletin boards.  Other activities from other organizations included:

- Granite State Zoo’s educational wild and exotic animal exhibit.

- McGregor Ambulance Corps exhibit and tours of an ambulance.

- An inflatable bouncy house and 22′ slide.

- Face decals, fireworks painting on paper plates, hula hoops, and other games.

- Carnival food including pizza, fried dough, sno-cones, hot dogs, etc.

- Music

- Newmarket Militia

- And, of course, spectacular fireworks!

The fireworks were presented by Pyrotecnico, America’s most innovative and creative designer of fireworks displays.  A voluntary donation was requested at the gate to defray the cost. Proceeds assist in high school scholarships, food bank contributions, Christmas turkey distributions, support to high school and UNH Rotary Clubs, an international program to eradicate polio, providing boots and shoes to needy children in local schools, and supporting local charitable organizations including Womenade, Bobcat Bolt, and On-Belay.

The Rotary Club of Durham-Great Bay wants to thank all of its sponsors and in particular the Town of Durham for providing police, fire and public works support and UNH for providing police support and their spectacular venue.

On Saturday April 16th, the official ground breaking ceremony was held for the latest Southeast NH Habitat for Humanity house being built at 9 Silver Street in Rochester.  Read the full story and see photos here.

Each year, about 30 young adults dipped their bicycles in the Piscataqua River at Prescott Park. At the end of August, this same group will dip these same bikes into the ocean in Vancouver, B.C. From now until then, they will ride their bikes across the country, while helping to build homes and raise money for Habitat for Humanity, and raise awareness for the need for affordable housing. This amazing team is from a non-profit organization called Bike and Build, and they are prepared to give all they’ve got for two months to address the nation’s affordable housing crisis.

This year, the Bike and Build team helped out at our ReStore.

SENH Habitat is VERY excited that our newest supporter Citadel Broadcasting Company has selected us for one of their Year of Service Awards! For the last 21 years Citadel Broadcasting Company has made a commitment to a public service organization and SENH Habitat is so thankful to have been included this year. Thank you Citadel Broadcasting Company!

After months and months of planning, our new ReStore in Dover, NH FINALLY had it’s opening day.  It was well attended by local politicians, our board members, and even our partner families.  We are THRILLED to be able to raise more money to raise more roofs, as well as keeping TONS of reusable products out of the landfill and providing hard-working local families a place to buy reasonably priced home building and repair supplies.

They start here in Portsmouth after spending months training and raising a minimum of $4,000 per rider.  And this year, we were blessed to have them on our work site at Joseph Halley Way!!
