Top September Stories: Honoring Veterans and First Responders, Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month

By Karen L. Edwards, RCS Editor. 

Here’s what’s trending on RoofersCoffeeShop® this past month. 

September's top stories covered a wide range of topics but the most read article by far was the one shared by Chris Hill at SRS Distribution honoring and remembering first responders and those whose lives were lost on September 11, 2001. They also shared information in there about how contractors can offer $250 to their customers who are first responders or members of the military.  

SRS Distribution’s announcement for the 2021 International Roofing Expo concert was the second most-read article. Their concerts raise money for the SRS Raise the Roof Foundation and the 2021 concert will also help provide funds for National Women in Roofing and the Roofing Alliance. If you missed the announcement, use the link below to see who will be performing at the House of Blues in Las Vegas.  

If you didn’t know, Hispanic Heritage month was September 15 – October 15 and Julissa Chavez of SRS shared eight fun ways to celebrate. Based on the popularity of the article, we hope that many of you had a chance to participate.  

As if 2020 weren’t crazy enough, it’s brought with it a crazy hurricane and wildfire season so it’s no surprise that the articles about that made the top stories list. If you didn’t get the chance to read the articles, follow the links below to check them out.
