- Tourists who’ve posed with and photographed Rumford’s Paul Bunyan statue at the Information Center in Boivin Park can now find his companion, Babe the Blue Ox, there as well. Hoping to attract tourists into the downtown business area, selectmen in 2009 voted to take $6,500 from the town’s economic development fund and have Babe created and placed in the Rite-Aid Pharmacy lot.
