SIOUX CITY — Even though she is wearing a fitness tracker watch, Home Builders Association (HBA) of Greater Siouxland executive officer Terri Schelm won’t have to worry about counting steps.

Certainly not when the 64th annual Home Builders Association of Greater Siouxland Home Show will be taking place Thursday through Sunday.

This year’s event will be housed at the Siouxland Expo Center, 550 S. Lafayette St., for the very first time.

“We loved being at the Siouxland Convention Center, but the Expo Center is so nice,” Schelm said, watching as vendors set up booths on Wednesday afternoon. “At the Expo Center, we have wide doors, which vendors love. Plus we’ll be on one floor, which guests will love.”

Indeed, she estimates the main floor of the Expo Center is more than twice the size of the Convention Center.

“That means vendors have space to spread out,” Schelm said. “Also, their displays will be bigger and better.”

This is certainly true for Coughlin Landscaping, whose Home Show display features elaborate architecture as well as an outdoor fireplace.

“People want their outdoor space to be as comfortable as their indoor space,” landscape designer Matt Larson explained. “Even more importantly, they want their outdoor space to reflect their own personality.”
