OWENSBORO, KY - ABC's popular television show "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" is coming back to the Tri-State next month to help build a new home for a family in need.

The show helped build a home in St. Meinrad in 2006, and now will help a family in the Owensboro, KY area. 

Thompson Homes of Owensboro will team up with Extreme Makeover for a one-week construction project.  All types of volunteers will be needed to donate their time and money to help finish this special project.  Details on how to volunteer will be available Thursday afternoon at http://extremethompsonhomes.com/.

Five families within a 20-mile radius of Owensboro are being considered.

Construction begins on September 5th with the Door Knock.
