Home and Garden Show fast approaching

WEIRTON - The Tri-State Home and Garden Show is fast approaching.

The annual event will take place Friday through Sunday at the Serbian-American Cultural Center. It is being presented through a joint effort by the Weirton Area and Jefferson County chambers of commerce, and coordinated by Beyond Marketing.

Major sponsors for the show this year include Weirton Medical Center, Panhandle Cleaning and Restoration and DeNoon Lumber.

The show is free and open to the public, with doors open from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.

The two chambers of commerce will hold a joint Business After Hours, open only to chamber members, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday.

Weirton Medical Center is returning as a sponsor for the long-running area event.

The local hospital will offer free blood pressure checks, along with health information and giveaways. Representatives of the medical center will be on hand to answer questions from area residents.

"We're pleased that the Weirton Area Chamber of Commerce and the Jefferson Chamber of Commerce host the Home and Garden Show each year," said Kevin Brown, director of communications for Weirton Medical. "It always draws a big crowd and gives local businesses the chance to showcase their products and services.

"For Weirton Medical Center, the show is a great opportunity to be in front of the public with important health information as well as information about Weirton Medical Center's programs and services," Brown said. "We hope the public comes out again this year to see the different vendors and experience the show."

Panhandle Cleaning and Restoration was founded in 1977 by Robert Contraguerro Sr. Through the years, the company has grown and worked on projects in more than 15 states, including taking part in hurricane relief up and down the East Coast.
