Melinda Shepard, Executive Director of the Clarksville Area Chamber of Commerce, welcomed hundreds of home-owners to Clarksville’s Wilma Rudolph Event Center to see what’s new in lawn, garden, and home care, products and services.
“This is our 11th annual Home Show,” Shepard said. “We have about 55 vendors this year, so that’s a strong turnout, attendance has been good, and the weather has been beautiful. This has been a great event so far.”
Shepard says the Home Show is one of those events that always fills up fast. “We are very fortunate. We have a lot of small businesses here that like to showcase their goods and services, so it’s a win-win for everyone. One of the vendors that sells lawn equipment, and lawn care services, told me that they generate enough good leads from this show to book business for the entire rest of the year.” Katie Vicars & Connie Gillum
