Marietta Georgia Teammates Honored First Responders with a Cookout

Marietta teammates brought the heat, and a lot of heart, to Cobb Fire Station #51 by hosting a special cookout to honor first responders. Greg Green with the Good Deed Team fired up the grill providing hot dogs, burgers, baked beans, and potato salad along with chips and cookies. Dozens of Marietta teammates and leadership members were on hand to help set-up, serve, and clean-up as they welcomed law enforcement officers, EMTs, firefighters and support staff.

This year marked a milestone as local television station FOX 5 attended the event expanding the reach and impact of Northwest’s community efforts. “We’re in the pest business, but we’re really in the people business. It’s important to say thank you to the people who give so much to the communities where we live and work” said Good Deed Team Co-Director, Kristen Milligan.

The first responders expressed heartfelt appreciation for the gesture. For Northwest Exterminating, the cookout was simply a small token of thanks for the sacrifices these heroes make every day.

Thanks to the hard work and dedication of Northwest teammates, the cookout not only honored our heroes, but it also brought people together in the true spirit of service and appreciation. Northwest has other upcoming First Responder Appreciation Cookouts planned around the Southeast.
