The Harrisburg Builders Association’s Parade of Homes event features tours of homes designed and constructed by the top builders in Central PA.
Each year Becky Weaver Design, in cooperation with Hoffmann Publishing Group, designs the event program including a directory of all homes and builders included in the Parade tour. Becky handles project management for this directory — working with the builders to obtain photos, floor plans, logos, and home descriptions for each property and incorporate it into the final show guide publication. She also has worked with the Builders Association to create a system of data management using Excel to streamline entry submission, and then uses formulas to tag data for formatting in InDesign. This not only saves time allowing the association to move the deadline closer to the time of the event, but also ensures consistency within the multiple indices, maps, and listings.
For several years, Becky also designed the accompanying Central Keystone Living Magazine section, featuring articles on homebuilding, decor, and maintenance.
