Mark your calendars and save the date for the 2010 Vinings Tour of Homes!

This year’s Tour is set for Sunday afternoon, September 26th, and five beautiful homes in Vinings will be showcased, along with the model homes of The Aberdeen on Paces Ferry. Saturday evening, September 25th, the Preview Party will be held at the Shroder home in Brandy Station.

South City KitchenVinings, will sponsor the party and provide a tasty array of their signature dishes. Jane Kennedy, owner of Curves in Vinings, will again Co-Chair the Vinings Tour of Homes with the help of Christian Brown. Christian has experience with home tours and he’s very excited about working with Jane and the Vinings volunteers this year.

Speaking of volunteers, the Vinings Historic Preservation Society needs volunteers to serve on the Tour of Homes committee and as docents in the homes. They also need House Chairs.

This year they have added a very nice perk for our House chairs. All five House chairs will receive a complimentary ticket to the Preview Party, a $75 value! Each house will also need two shifts of docents and all docents will receive a discounted Tour of Homes ticket so you may enjoy the home tour at a special price before or after your shift.

They also need auction items for the live and silent auction. If you have an item or a service you would like to donate, please give us a call. Small and large items are desired and they’d love to have a vacation home for the live auction. Your donations are tax deductible.

All proceeds will benefit Vinings Historic Preservation Society, a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. This year we are having to replace the entire porch at the Pace House, our building listed on the National Register of Historic Places, so the proceeds will certainly be put to good use.

Please contact VHPS if you would like to volunteer for this fun event!
