Those attending METALCON in Las Vegas, scheduled for October 21-23, will certainly notice the construction of a steel-frame building on the show floor.

METALCON and industry partners are constructing the 232-m² (2,500-sf) “barndominium” at the show, before using the framing for a permanent veterans’ retreat in Montana.

Designed by Stacee Lynn, known as “The Barndominium Lady,” this retreat was shaped in collaboration with the Military Warriors Support Foundation to meet the unique needs of those it is intended to serve. Stacee Lynn, founder of The Barndominium Company, is known for blending bold aesthetics with functional living.

“Being a part of the Eagle’s Landing Veteran project to design and build a veterans’ retreat facility in Montana is an incredibly meaningful experience for me and The Barndominium Company,” says Lynn. “The opportunity to work with the four-star rated Military Warriors Support Foundation, the METALCON 25 Team, and other corporate partners that have joined the team and contributed materials and services to this effort is phenomenal.

“Coming from a family with four generations of military and merchant marine service, including my husband, son, and daughters, this project resonates deeply with my personal history and values. It is an opportunity for me and our team to give back to the veteran community that has been such an integral part of our lives. The chance to use our team’s expertise in barndominium design to create a space that will benefit veterans for decades is both an honor and a privilege,” Lynn adds.

The framing at METALCON and on the jobsite is from Scottsdale Construction Systems.

Before the show opens, Scottsdale Construction Systems and its partner companies will manufacture and assemble the steel-frame barndominium in the METALCON exhibit hall.

Several other METALCON exhibitors are participating in the construction of the project by donating building materials to be used at the show and/or the Montana site.

Steel Dynamics is contributing the exterior siding, its Tru-Steel HD digitally printed panels, while Owens Corning is donating its Titanium PSU30 high-temperature self-adhered underlayment.

Montana winters can bring plenty of snow, so S-5! Is donating a complete ColorGard 2.0 snow retention system in a color to match the metal roofing.

Insulation for the veterans’ retreat is being provided by Firestable Insulation Company, which is donating its closed-cell spray foam thermal barrier insulation at Eagle’s Landing.

Lastly, Carlisle Architectural Metals (CAM) is donating metal roofing to the project, PAC Snap Clad panels.

The Eagle’s Landing project is expected to be completed sometime in 2026.

“I have a profound sense of pride and responsibly in contributing to this project,” says Lynn. “Knowing that our work will provide a place of respite and healing for veterans is immensely rewarding. It is a way for us to honor the sacrifices made by veterans, including those in our own family and to ensure their legacy is preserved. This project is not just about building a facility; it is about creating a lasting impact on the lives of those who have served their country.”
