Michelle Finnamore, owner of Advantage Staging has been invited
to participate in the
United Way 5oth Anniversary Estate on the Bay Designer Showcase.
Arch and Helen Brown, well known local philanthropists, have generously donated the use of their beautiful home on Kempenfelt Bay for a complete design transformation!
The Estate on the Bay, located at 1 Barrie Terrace, Barrie, Ontario, sits on 1.3 spectacular acres, with 250 feet of frontage on the north side of beautiful Kempenfelt Bay. The home is approximately 10,000 square feet with a covered boat slip that can house a 55’ boat.

Advantage staging will be highlighting the focal

points of the extensive landscaped grounds
as well as the top of the 55 foot boat slip that overlooks the bay.
This unique occasion includes a silent auction, a tour of the Brown home decorated and furnished by area designers with entertainment throughout the evening.
The home will be open to the public to tour September 18-20, 2009. Stay tuned for updated photos of the finished design concept.
All proceeds will support United Way of Greater Simcoe County.
Winner of Trailblazer Company of the Year 2009.

Sounds like an awesome event and you must be so honored to be able to participate. United Way is a fantastic charity as well - glad to see that's where the proceeds will go.
Hi Leesa, it is indeed an honour to be nominated to work on this project. The United Way does so much for the community and is a valuable outreach service organization. I have something really interesting up my sleeve for the design concept so keep watching for the final design concept to be brought to life.
How lovely of you to be involved like this-anxious for the update.
HI Cathy, I am looking forward to seeing the reaction from people when they see what I have arranged for the exterior spaces. Definitely out of the ordinary.
Wishing you the best and I can't wait to see the before/after pics ~ Congrats!
Hi Tosha,thank you for your good wishes. I am hoping this is a successful event for the United Way. They do so much for our community.
