Hall County presents the 2011 Home Expo What makes a person a winner? I think this is a very valid question given the circumstances that we find ourselves in today. A few key words that describe a winner are dedication, desire, imagination and determination. These are the exact traits that you will find at our Home Expo.

You may ask how this could possibly relate to the Home Expo. Each of the exhibitors at this year’s Home Expo is a winner in the truest since of the word.

They have all used these traits to continue to perform their chosen professions at the highest levels. Those that are present at the show have proven their determination and imagination in discovering new and better ways to accomplish their jobs. So as you enjoy the Expo this year, you can rest assured that you are being supported by the best the industry has to offer.

The past three years has been rough on everyone in the building industry, however there are signs that the industry is turning the corner. The economy is improving as witnessed by the financial markets.

Van Neese, Executive Oficer, Home Builders Association of Gainesville–Hall County

Hopefully this is just the beginning of the recovery we have all been waiting for. The fact is that the exhibitors at this year’s show are the best of the best. We know that because they are present and

accounted for at this year’s Home Expo.

They are ready and eager to support the citizens of our area and can show and demonstrate the best goods and services anywhere.

Surviving these past few years has not been easy. It has impacted all of us in many ways. However, just as the exhibitors in the show, we have all managed to find ways to continue to support our families and have found new and different ways to be successful. If nothing else, this year’s Home Expo shows the resilience that individuals have to take on the tough times and find a way to succeed.

We will be offering some very exciting and informative seminars. The Master Gardeners will be on hand to show how to get started on your spring lawn and garden plans for 2011. With their help, you will have the showplace yard in your community.

All in all, to be able to see the most current technology within the building industry located in our own backyard

makes for a must-see event. There will be activities, drawings for prizes, and many more exciting events for everyone to enjoy. So mark your calendars for March 5 and 6 and join all of your friends and neighbors for an exciting two-day event at the Georgia Mountains Center in downtown Gainesville.
