SEATTLE'S BEST COFFEE BREWS UP SMOOTHER DAYS WITH FRESH LOOK, NEW FLAVOR, AND NATIONAL CAMPAIGN STARRING COMEDIAN JOEL MCHALE
McHale brings humor and relatability to everyday coffee moments in new campaign aimed at giving coffee drinkers a smooth moment to start their days SEATTLE, April 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Seattle's Best Coffee® is brewing up a new creative campaign in partnership with Joel McHale to celebrate fresh packaging and a new flavor addition: Campfire S'mores™ Flavored Coffee. In pursuit of bringing one smooth moment to start the day, the brand blended decades of smooth roasting expertise with a modern approach to deliver flavorful experiences and comfort, quality and consistency in every cup. As part of the brand's refresh, Seattle's Best Coffee just unveiled "May Smoother Coffee Bring Smoother Days," a national campaign starring McHale, a Seattle-native and coffee aficionado. This humorous campaign shows how Seattle's Best Coffee helps make the toughest moments feel a little bit easier from the all-too-relatable challenges of daily routines. Created by LA-based creative agency, HAYMAKER, the campaign is running across national television, digital and social platforms this spring. View on the Seattle's Best Coffee YouTube channel here. "Much like Seattle's Best, I have West Coast roots in coffee. In fact, my first job was working at a coffee cart, so being part of this campaign was a satisfying, full-circle moment," said Joel McHale. "I rely on my daily brew from Seattle's Best Coffee to survive my not-so-smooth days, and I know my fellow caffeinated comrades do too!" The brand's bold new packaging features distinct color-coded flavor panels for easy selection, hand-drawn illustrations for each blend, and a dedicated panel for highlighting roast level, name, and tasting notes. And with a new look comes a new flavor offering – Seattle's Best Coffee® Campfire S'mores™, a smooth-roasted blend with notes of toasted marshmallow, milk chocolate and a hint of honey graham cracker. "Since 1970, Seattle's Best Coffee has been dedicated to delivering a perfectly roasted, consistently smooth cup of coffee. While our mission remains unchanged, we recognize that life is anything but smooth – things go wrong, plans fall apart, and sometimes you just have to roll with it," said Courtney Backman, brand manager for Seattle's Best Coffee. "By embracing those unpredictable moments with humor and relatability, we're showing that while you can't always control your day, you can always count on the smooth, satisfying taste of Seattle's Best Coffee to help you power through." Seattle's Best Coffee® Campfire S'mores™ Flavored Coffee is available at retailers nationwide in both ground (MSRP of $8.99 for an 11 oz. bag) and K-Cup (MSRP of $7.99 for a 10-count box) formats.

Girard firefighter honored for 65 years of service
A.F. Dobler Hose & Ladder Company celebrated one of their own. Current Fire Police Captain Robert 'Doc' Orr was honored for 65 years of serving the Girard community. Doc Orr first started as a volunteer firefighter when he was 18 years old and now, even at 83-years-old he continues to go on emergency calls. Bicentennial Tower lighting up for National Eating Disorders Awareness Week Whether it's a house fire, forest fire, EMS call, or even the delivery of a baby, Robert 'Doc' Orr has seen it all in his time as a first responder. It all started when he was 17, and before he was able to join the company. 'The chief of the fire police was always giving me the devil because I was chasing the fire trucks to a fire, or whatever. He said, 'Why don't you join the fire department?' I wasn't old enough, I was only 17. They didn't have junior firemen back then,' he said. And just a month before he turned 18, he put in his application so by his 18th birthday, he could be approved to join them. Erie coffee shops go cup-to-cup at Erie's Best Coffee competition In the time since Orr has held almost every title the department has to offer and has gone on thousands of calls. 'I've been the chief, assistant chief, deputy, all of that,' he said. He even fought forest fires across the country in his prime and to this day serves as a council member for the Borough of Girard, something he's done for 37 years now. Today, Orr is the captain of the fire police and even at 83, company officials told us he went on about 140 emergency calls last year alone. Close Thanks for signing up! Watch for us in your inbox. Subscribe Now Orr said he recognizes volunteerism is down and said young people need to carry the torch. 'We've got a lot of nice young people in the department. We're not really hurting for people, but we need more commitment of the younger people to carry on because lord knows we all aren't going to last forever,' he explained. Being a volunteer isn't just taxing on the member but their family as well. And his wife said they've done a lot to make it work. 'We've been married for 58 years and that's a commitment itself. I truly admire all of the things he's done for the community and I help wherever I can. We make a good team,' said Sue Orr, Doc's wife.

Doc said his fire hasn't gone out yet. As long as he continues to be in good health, he says he'll still do his part in keeping his community safe as he's done for a lifetime already.
