| (Rochester, NH—September 28, 2009)— When representatives of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, the Emmy award-winning ABC Television hit show, surprise one lucky Upper Valley family with a life-changing, extreme home makeover on Monday, September 28, Eastern Propane & Oil will be standing by. Last week, Trumbull-Nelson Construction—the project manager and TV show’s local liaison—selected the family-owned energy provider to install and deliver propane energy services to the new home. Scheduled to be built in less than one week, the house will feature all-new construction materials and furnishings donated by local businesses. Limoges Oil & Propane, a division of Eastern Propane and Oil, will contribute the propane, labor and materials associated with the gas installation. Mark Limoges, Energy Consultant for Eastern, is the team leader for the project. Limoges will head up a group of between five and eight Eastern employees who will be dedicated to the project throughout the week of construction. “I’ve watched the show,” said Limoges, “so I know that this has the potential to be a crazy and exhausting week; but at the same time I am very honored to be part of a company that is dedicated to making this rewarding experience happen—not only for us as employees, but for everyone who is involved.” While the name of the family and the location of the home site cannot be released until that infamous mega-phone announcement occurs, one of five families who have been nominated from the Upper Valley will be selected. Trumbull-Nelson Construction President Larry Ufford noted, “We are extremely honored to be chosen by ABC to make this dream happen. Already one of the most rewarding parts of this challenge has been the opportunity to reach out to our peers and colleagues like Eastern Propane and Oil. I can’t thank them enough for their support.” Interested individuals or companies can find more information on how to volunteer time and resources at www.TNBuildCommunity.com or by calling 603-643-6500.
