A day for the whole family.
On an overcast and chilly Saturday, May 14, Keycon’s Eichler Remodeling Faire 2011 drew nearly 500 attendees for a fun and informative event at Keycon’s headquarters in Mountain View. And once again, the caterer kept the food and drinks coming as attendance surged beyond expectations.
Produced by remodeling contractor Keycon, Inc., the Faire helps Eichler owners “realize their remodeling dreams” in a party-themed venue. This year, Eichler homeowners met with 18 Eichler expert companies and shared a catered lunch while the children played in the Faire’s Kid’s Fun Zone.
As with last year’s event, Eichler Remodeling Faire 2011 was powered by Keycon owner Ron Key’s vision and relationships with Keycon’s expert partners and subcontractors. In support of the event, once again the Eichler Network provided the marketing platform and Eventbrite.com provided online event management.
