MATTOON -- Job seekers turned out to see what area employers had to offer Thursday. It was part of the 12th Annual Business Expo.

This year, organizers added a job fair to help put people back to work. For the first time, home-based businesses were invited to join the expo. It gave those business owners a chance to get to know people in the community.

Visitors also had a chance to take part in a scavenger hunt. They answered questions about vendors to qualify for prizes.
