On Sunday, November 30, the Breslin Center at Michigan State University will rock with the cheers of those in the Lansing area who helped with the building of the Nickless family home a few months ago.
The owners of the Lansing-based Mayberry Homes, the company who oversaw the demolition and construction of the house, are inviting the whole community to the Breslin Center to watch Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. They are providing free parking and free admission.
Over 1,600 volunteers from around the area donated time and money to make a local family's dreams come true. The Nickless family lost their father earlier this year due to complications from Hepatitis C. He was a nurse at a local hospital and had contracted the disease from a patient.
The entire mid-Michigan community was enthralled by the week-long tearing down and rebuilding of the home. Bus loads of sightseers were allowed in for a daily look at the progress.
Now it is time to enjoy the televised results - as a community.
