The date is set…..Sunday, October 25th will be the airing of the Montgomery’s Extreme Makeover in Philo, Il; just outside of Champaign/Urbana.

In August 2009, Ty Pennington and Crew knocked on the door of the Montgomery Family in Philo, Il and invaded the town of 1400 for the next few days with a demolition and built a new home with the Central Il Builder, Brady Homes. Bill, Bob and Ed Brady have a corporate office in Bloomington, Il but build and develop in the Springfield, Bloomington, Peoria, Champaign, and Bourbonnais Communities throughout Central Il.

Springfield Electric received the call to participate from Bob Brady at Brady Homes, in what would be the 2nd Extreme Makeover in the last year. SESCO participated in the Pekin, Il Makeover last Fall for the Gry Family.  And a 3rd SESCO participated Extreme Makeover was completed in September 2009 in Freeport, Il, near the Rockford Branch Location.


 Along with tremendous vendor support, SESCO contributed to another great cause in Philo, IL for the Montgomery Family---helping with the lighting and electrical for the Montgomery’s new home as well as some lighting and electrical for their Charity, Salt and Light in Champaign, just down the street from the Champaign Branch. 

The Montgomery’s feed over 250 families on average per week.You can view some of the footage, press releases and other information at Brady's Website. Click Here
