The Saratoga Builders Association is proud to present the proceeds totaling $50,000 from the 2010 Showcase of Homes to Rebuilding Together Saratoga County and Habitat for Humanity of Northern Saratoga, Warren and Washington Counties.. Over the past 15 years, the Saratoga Builders Association has contributed over $650,000 to local charities and scholarships.
After a one-year hiatus, the 2010 edition of the Showcase of Homes came roaring back in spectacular fashion and was the largest ever in its history. The inaugural “Chefs – Saratoga Style” evening kicked off the Showcase and was sold out. The event was a tremendous success with over 3,500 people touring the 16 beautiful homes on display in Saratoga County. The wonderful autumn weather over the three weekends contributed to the exceptional turnout, but it was the line up of 15 unique, award-winning builders that attracted the crowds. Their artistry along with the many talented designers who helped showcase their fine work gave our community an opportunity to preview current trends in building, decorating and interior design. In what has become a tradition in our area, the Saratoga Builders Association is looking forward to keeping this long running show, which just concluded its 15th year, a vital part of the fabric in our fall season. The 2011 Showcase of Homes dates have been set for September 17-18, 24-25, and October 1-2.
