(TORONTO - Wednesday, August 10, 2005) From the Ground Up with Debbie Travis is looking for participants. The 10-episode, one-hour primetime event series will air on the Global Television Network next spring, and viewers will see Canada’s leading interior design star like never before. The indomitable Travis is on a mission: to not only renovate a house, but lives one brick at a time.
From the Ground Up with Debbie Travis will bring together 12 young people between the ages of 19-30 who will work with Travis on a massive renovation and design project for a chance at cash, fame and a future. In addition to building a house for tomorrow, participants will be taught all the renovation and design skills on the job that will help them in their future careers. With passion and hard work, participants will have the opportunity to walk away from the program with hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Beginning August 16, Travis will be in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary and Halifax for an open casting call in search of participants.
