PARADE OF HOMES™ BUILDER REMINDERS Final Entry Deadline: due by 4 p.m. on Thursday, February 16, 2023.

This is the final contract submittal date and no application will be accepted after this date.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE TABA Members, It’s going to be a GREAT year at TABA! As we begin the new year, I’d like to recognize our new Platinum, Gold and Silver Partners who are featured on the cover of this issue. Next month, you will likely see a few more names as members commit to sponsorships for the year.

Our partners play a vital role in our Association and make many events possible.

Please make plans to join us this month for Bowling with Builders, benefiting HOMEPAC! Proceeds from this event will benefit the Texas Association of Builder’s political action committee, which promotes pro-housing legislature.

So join us for a good cause, all while having a great night of bowling.

Finally, we still have a few sponsorships available! If you are interested in sponsoring any TABA events, now is the time to commit.

Please contact Libby Simmons at lsimmons@tylerareabuilders.com or (903)561-3964 for more information.

Happy New Year!

Thanks, Erin Wright TABA President
