When the NFL is in Town We Tour!
The NFL Alumni Artisan Home Tour took place last Saturday during Super Bowl weekend. Attendees were transported by motor coach to four spectacular homes built by Denali Custom Homes, John Kraemer & Sons, Lecy Bros. Homes & Remodeling, and Stonewood LLC. Afterwards, the attendees enjoyed a lunch/reception at the Lafayette Club hosted by former NFL players including Darrell Thompson, Kurt Knoff, Matt Blair and Bart Oates. This event benefited the BATC-Housing First Minnesota Foundation and NFL Alumni.
Another Life Changing Project Completed
The BATC-Housing First Foundation wrapped up another great project last week for Homeward Bound with build partners Minnesota Rusco and Contract Interiors. The project included the renovation of two bathrooms and new flooring in one of Homeward Bound's homes for individuals with disabilities.
