What's new at the HBA
Fall Parade of Homes
September 6-7 & 13-14
Consumers have one more chance before the leaves fall to view a showcase of new homes in the Fargo-Moorhead area. Hosted by the Home Builders Association of Fargo-Moorhead, the 9th Annual Fall Parade of Homes will be Sept. 6-7 and 13-14. Hours are noon - 5 p.m. each day. Admission is free.
The Fall Parade will include homes in every price range built by many different HBA builders, each with his or her own distinct style. Bright yellow and blue directional signs and pennants will mark homes participating in the parade. This year’s event covers West Fargo, Fargo, Moorhead and Dilworth.
Complimentary Parade of Homes magazines detailing each home entry will be available at all Hornbacher’s stores Sept. 3-14. Consumers may also visit the Parade of Homes’ Web site at hbafm.com beginning Sept. 3.
The magazine and Web site are new Parade features designed to help consumers explore the event and its entries. The magazine will be a full-color, glossy publication with a half page dedicated to each home entry. Homes will be represented in full color, 3-D renderings with a floor plan option for builders who choose to include it.
The interactive Web site will allow consumers to browse homes, view maps and look for builders. It will be available online until the next Parade begins in April 2009.
