BILLINGS - More than 100 vendors entered into a new expo held at MetraPark which hopes to make a nationwide impact.

The Family Life Expo was held at the MetraPark Pavilion and attended by 100 vendors dealing in quality of living.

Event founder and developer Kim Sapone said she's been planning the event for several years, after having to make many life decisions for herself and her children as a single mother.

Sapone's hope is that the expo will help families plan for everything from the cradle to the grave.

"If you're a family who has your interest in information in education, child birth, finances, buying a home, careers, what to do with your parents that may need extra help-- this is definitely the place to be," said Sapone.

Sapone says she plans on taking the Family Life Expo to 4 more cities in Montana before starting a national circuit.
