Becoming an Exhibitor

   The Central Oregon Builders Association would like to cordially invite you to participate in the 10th annual Central Oregon Builders Association's Fall Home & Garden Show. The COBA Board of Directors voted to create and start this show in 1993 to help our members and friends market their products to all of Central Oregon.

    Consumer trade shows are the most cost effective means of generating new business and the Central Oregon Builders Association’s Fall Home Show has a great track record. You get a targeted media campaign which includes radio, TV, newspaper ads and a special section in The Bulletin, professional show management and much, much more.

    We are always looking to add new quality exhibitors to our show that already includes over 250 quality exhibitors and sponsors. The show has a total attendance of over 7,000 and last year the show had nearly $50,000 in marketing dollars spent in the local area.

• The Central Oregon Builders Association Fall Home & Garden Show is one of the largest events east of the Cascades
• More than 9,000 people will be at this show to see your products and/or services.
• More than 300 exhibitors.
• Three days dedicated exclusively to your market.
• More than 25 dynamic workshops done by experts in their fields.
• This event is promoted with nearly $100,000 worth of adverising including newspaper, radio and television reaching nearly 90% of the market (more than 100,000 adults) in the tri-county area.
• This event is owned and produced by one of the fastest growing builders associations in the nation. Central Oregon is one of the fastest growing regions in the west.  Deschutes County alone is expected to grow from 140,000 people in 2005 to more than 255,000 by 2040.
• All this for an investment of less than 5¢ per show visitor.
