MT. VERNON, IL — It’s shaping up to be a busy but fun weekend for the Greater Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce. Starting Friday, if you own a home, want to own a home someday, or work on homes in any way, you’ll want to visit the Times Square Mall for the 8th Annual Home & Outdoor Expo. The event runs from 5-8pm on Friday and all day (9a-6p) on Saturday.

Member Relations Executive Laura Horn on what to expect when visiting the Home & Outdoor Expo.

Then on Sunday, you can take in some professional baseball at Brennan Klein Field as the Southern Illinois Miners and Gateway Grizzlies will come to town. Horn explains the plan for this Sunday’s game.

You can see full details on both of these events via the chamber website, southernillinois.com, at the bottom of the home page on their event flyers.
