There is no charge for the event that is open to the public.
The Kalona News advertising Director April Rigsby has coordinated the Home Show, which is one of a kind event designed to benefit the entire Kalona community. Proceeds from the show will help benefit The Kalona News Newspaper in Education (NIE) program.
The special Home Improvement issue in this edition of The Kalona News features ads and stories from the vendors and other home improvement specialists in the area.
"We appreciate the effort that April Rigsby has put into this show and the support of the advertisers and vendors for the Home Show section," commented publisher Ron Slechta. More details on the show can be found in the Home Show and Improvement section in this issue of The Kalona News."
