COHBA, State and National Logos

COHBA Parade of Homes
The Parade of Homes is one of the highlights of the Association. Builders take this time to display their homes for all to see. Entry fees are used for an energetic advertising campaign. Results from previous parades have shown tremendous results in public awareness and sales for builders who participate. The Parade of Homes is the time for residential builders to advertise their products. The fee is nominal when compared with the coverage received.
The Association also displays two “New Feature Homes” each year. Which gives the Associate members the opportunity to show the latest and most advanced products available in the housing industry. These ‘Feature Homes’ benefit the Association and, in turn, the membership.
General Membership Booths
These booths, 6′ draped table @100.00 each, are available to each and every member. Booths are an excellent way for members to display their products or services. We have a total of six (6) booths highlighted each General Membership Meeting. To reserve a booth, call (405) 843-1508.
