From the Executive Director's Desk
Another successful Parade of Homes has now come and gone, and we thank all of the builders, members, and visitors who took advantage of this year's first ever virtual event.
Next we turn our sights to the 2021 Home Building & Remodeling Show, and remind you that early bird pricing ends September 17th, so book your booth today!
On a national level, we continue to request your support in reaching out to Congress regarding the increased lumber prices. If you haven't already, sign up for NAHB's BuilderLink and get all the information you need. |
