Mission Control, the 2020 HomeAid Houston Project Playhouse, is under construction and will be launching soon, on a date and location to be announced.

This is the 14th year for this HomeAid Houston fundraiser that is in partnership with the Houston Astros and the Astros Charitable Foundation.

Mission Control is being built by First America Homes, the home-building division of The Signorelli Co.

Its space-themed design, which features an operable Dutch-style spaceship door, a detachable slide, a flat-screen TV, gaming system and gaming chairs, appeals to children and adults of all ages. The playhouse is also a modular design to make transporting and installation more owner-friendly.

“HomeAid is grateful to the team of First America Homes/Signorelli and the playhouse’s generous sponsors as they man Mission Control while working together to raise funds for future HomeAid projects,” said Carole Brady, executive director of HomeAid Houston. “This year’s fluid circumstances are not stopping the Mission Control team in their quest to launch this fundraiser.”

The Mission Control team, led by Dave Barnhart, division president of the home-building division, includes Danny Signorelli, CEO; Ramiro Gonzalez, vice president of sales, home-building division; Kris Moreno, director of construction, home-building division; Kristen Rinewalt, purchasing manager, home-building division; Siedah Chaney, purchasing coordinator, home-building division; Sandra Ferguson, marketing director, the Signorelli Company; Angelina Naspretto, marketing manager, home-building division; and Codi Bishop, junior graphic designer, home-building division.

Builders Post-Tension is a “Home Run”-level sponsor of the playhouse, and in-kind donors include: BMC, donating materials; IES Residential, labor and electrical materials; Adventure Playground Systems, interior playhouse items; and Houston Sign Co., vinyl wrap for the playhouse.

“On behalf of the entire First America Homes and Signorelli Company team, we are truly honored to have been selected as the builder lead for Project Playhouse this year,” said Barnhart. “We are excited about this year’s space-themed design, which I can say objectively is ‘over the moon’ with its detailing and amenities. We are looking forward to a lunar landing this summer.”
