Area charities and nonprofit organizations have the opportunity to thank their dedicated volunteers in a special way.

The Indianapolis Home & Flower Show is offering passes to interested, local not-for-profit organizations to hand out to their volunteers to enjoy the show for free. The new, annual show coming to Lucas Oil Stadium is scheduled for Friday, March 5 through Sunday, March 7, 2010.

The show is produced by Marketplace Events, the same company that produces the Indianapolis Home Show. The international exhibition company was selected by Lucas Oil Stadium to organize the Home & Flower Show as the first consumer show of its kind and the only annual spring home and flower show at the stadium. It offers exhibitors a high-quality 3-day show as an additional option to its companion show, the 10-day Indianapolis Home Show, the nation’s oldest and the Midwest’s largest home-focused extravaganza.

A large area for feature flowers and gardens will be the Home & Flower Show’s centerpiece, which will be enhanced by the surroundings of Lucas Oil Stadium. Both shows are endorsed by Marketplace Events’ Spokesperson Ty Pennington, host of ABC-TV’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

Interested local charities should call the Indianapolis Home & Flower Show office at 317-705-8719. And for more information, visit www.indyhomeandflowershow.com.
