staff and corporate representatives attended the convention, which was
held at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas from June 26 to 30.

“While building a successful small business takes work and dedication, our
success is also a reflection of the support and exceptional disaster
remediation solutions and training we receive as a member of the SERVPRO
franchise network,” said Anthony Blodgett, SERVPRO of Cass & St. Joseph
Counties owner. “We are proud to accept this award on behalf of our
business and our employees, and are grateful to SERVPRO for giving us the
tools, framework and training we need to be both successful and a resource
to our community when disaster strikes.”

The Awards Extravaganza event was a highlight of this year’s convention,
which was organized around the theme “All In.” The week of workshops and
networking was designed to unite franchise owners, team members,
distributors, associates and corporate employees. The program featured a
keynote address by motivational speaker Connie Podesta

training and providing resources designed to help each Franchise grow and
better serve their community.

“SERVPRO understands running a small business is a challenge,” said Sue

convention gives us the opportunity to recognize individual franchisees
that have excelled at building their business, as well as enhancing
SERVPRO’s reputation as an industry leader in disaster cleanup,
restoration and remediation services. We offer our sincere congratulations
