The 2011 International Roofing Expo is offering attendees and exhibitors the opportunity to give back to the Las Vegas community during Community Service Day on Tuesday, Feb. 15, 2011.

Held from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Community Service Day is a home renovation and revitalization project that will be performed on homes of elderly veterans.

“This gratifying event is a perfect opportunity to help those less fortunate,” said Lindsay Roberts, Director of the Expo. “It’s especially rewarding to give back to veterans who have devoted their lives to public service and protecting our freedom.”

To help with the renovations, professional and amateur volunteers are needed from a variety of construction disciplines including interior/exterior painting and clean up, flooring and minor carpentry.

Working under the direction of a crew chief, all volunteers must be 18 years of age or older and will be asked to sign a Waiver of Liability Form.

Community Service Day is sponsored by Sika Sarnafil, who will be exhibiting in booth #426. Sika Sarnafil offers roofing and waterproofing systems that are widely recognized for exemplifying the highest standards of quality, reliability and watertight protection. NRCA and Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada have also partnered with the IRE to host this very important event.

“I encourage all of our members to participate in this great cause,” said Bill Good, Executive Vice President of NRCA. “The fact that we’re helping veterans makes this even more special. It’s wonderful to know they’ll have a better place to call home.”
