The Southern Missouri Builders Association regrets to announce that due to the COVID-19 pandemic the 2021 West Plains Home & Garden Show will be rescheduled from the Spring 2021 (March) date to March 4th & 5th, 2022.
The Builders Association had hoped that the pandemic would be controlled sufficiently this summer in order to be possible to move the 29th Annual Home & Garden Show from the early March date to June, 2021. However, the pandemic is still very active and after reviewing the limitations and adjustments to the event that would be required to in order to hold it in June 2021, the Board of Directors and the Home & Garden Show Committee have regretfully decided to postpone the Show until March 4th and 5th, the first weekend in March 2022.
The West Plains Civic Center and the City of West Plains have been working with the Association attempting to salvage the 2021 Home & Garden Show, but the restrictions for Shows and large gatherings are anticipated to continue yet in June 2021 and will mean that a June Show is not feasible for the Exhibitors, Attendees and the Southern Missouri Builders this year.
Mandated limitations on the number of persons permitted to be in a given space at the same time means that both the number of booths in the proposed 2021 Show, and the number of persons and attendees allowed in the Exhibit Hall are severely limited.
Exhibitors registered for the 2021 Show may call Mary Mike Taylor at the Southern Missouri Builders Association at 417-256-2422 or email at smhba1@centurylink.net.
