Spring brings sunnier and warmer days and as a result it’s the perfect time to get out and reconnect. Whether it’s friends and neighbors, or local businesses Spring is the perfect season for outdoor events. Because wherever you are in New England, there is an abundance of local community events like town festivals. As a result, the team at RIHI wants to share three great reasons to get out and enjoy these community get togethers.
1. Get Together
Community events are a great way to get together with neighbors and friends in a fun, festive atmosphere. Because of this, you’ll have a great time for the entire family. Here you’ll find activities for kids and adults alike such as contests, games, and giveaways.
2. Fun Activities
Local events will have tastings/refreshments by local restaurants making it a great way to introduce you to new businesses. You’ll also find that often there may be some form of entertainment like local bands or other types of performance art.
3. Great Way to Learn
Lastly, events are also a great way to learn more about local businesses like RIHI The Home Improvement Specialists. We’re a third-generation business that has been around since 1949! And it’s a great opportunity to meet these businesses face to face and learn more about what they do. Then you can decide you decide if it is a business you’d like to work with someday.
The RIHI team’s Spring event schedule is happening including Gaspee Days, Newton Family FunFest, and Cranston Spring Festival. Below is a more complete list of events we’ll be participating in this year. We look forward to the opportunity to meet you and introduce you to the RIHI family. Hope to see you soon. Happy Spring!
