WGBY, HBRAWM co-sponsor Western Mass. Home Show

Date: 3/13/2013

SPRINGFIELD – WGBY is partnering once again with the Western Massachusetts chapter of the Home Builders and Remodelers Association (HBRAWM) for the 2013 Western Mass Home and Garden Show. The annual event, which takes place on the grounds of the Eastern States Exposition in West Springfield, begins March 21 and runs through March 23.

WGBY's exhibit, located in the Young Building across from a restaurant, is made possible by Balise Lexus. Balise will provide a lounge next to WGBY's exhibit for Lexus owners and will also present an array of the latest Lexus models.

The 2013 show marks the 59th year that the springtime event has taken place. Known as one of the largest home shows in the country, visitors will find more than 350 vendors in more than 600 booths throughout two buildings and an outdoor area. Local and national vendors' exhibits feature "everything for the home and garden," according to the show's website.

"Our association has been a vital resource for people in the Pioneer Valley for over 74 years. Not only do we serve the residential contractor by providing networking and educational opportunities, we are also here to help the consumer. Whether it is attending our home show, picking up a copy of our latest Consumer Guide to the Building Industry, or calling our office for referrals, our association helps to educate consumers about selecting a reputable contractor that can address all their needs," Brad Campbell, executive director of the HBRAWM, said.

WGBY offers a special discount coupon for those interested in attending; a deal that will save an attendee up to $7 on admission.
