Looking for something fun to do this weekend, but don’t want to travel far from your McHenry new homes? Well, you’re in luck. On Feb. 18 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. stop by McHenry High School’s west campus for the Carnival of Commerce. This event is free to the public, so make sure to bring your whole family out for a day of fun.

The day has something for everyone. Want to test your athleticism? Try the McHenry Warriors obstacle course. Love animals? Stop by Amazing Animals by Samantha to watch attention-grabbing presentations from the animals in Smantha’s zoo. Or, be entertained by Daisy Muffin the clown—the Carnival of Commerce will have it all.

In addition to obstacle courses and entertainment, there will also be face painting, free popcorn, giveaways, games including the fishing pole game, ring toss, bozo buckets, the lollipop game and so much more. For more information, visit the McHenry Chamber of Commerce website.

The Carnival of Commerce is just minutes away from our new homes at Liberty Trails and just a short drive from the Richmond new homes at The Trails of Pheasant Ridge. Both communities boast affordably priced, spacious new single-family homes. Whether you want a ranch or two-story plan, or need to customize your new home with additions such as volume ceilings, three-car garages, hardwood flooring and more, you’ll find that we can build your new home to fit your needs.
