                10th Anniversary Home Tour – Best Year Ever!


The 2009 ABPA Home Tour was an enormous success, raising more money for our schools than any
Tour in history.  We generated $50,000 for Armstrong and Bradfield Elementaries thanks to the help
of so many in our community.

First, we’d like to thank Dr. Richey, Dr. McNutt, Dr. Carter and Mr. Gilbert and their staffs, as well
as the PTA’s and Preschool Associations at each school.  A special thanks goes out to Director
Natalie Waters and the HPHS Lads & Lassies, Peggy Tucker and the HPHS Orchestra and Blanca
Applewhite for providing beautiful music during tour festivities this past fall.

As with any endeavor this big, we were united with amazing women who volunteered their time and
talents to make this an exceptional year for the Tour.  We could not have done this without their help
and we are very grateful for their generous donation of time and effort – again, they are a reflection
of the depth of talent in our community and the desire by many to make this Tour and our schools
great.

We added several exciting things this year:  a “bonus” home (a penthouse at The Mansion
Residences) where we served champagne, wine and canapés, a Holiday Hayride fundraiser for our
members (families coming together to enjoy the lights of the holiday season), personalized
ornament sales to raise additional funds, and online ticket sales (we are now proud to be a part of the
web access community!).

We are also deeply grateful for our sponsors and underwriters– without whom we do not accomplish
the goal of fundraising for the schools.  In a difficult year, our sponsors and underwriters – many of
whom live in our community - have dug deep and made this a priority in their charitable giving.  
For this, we are so thankful and honored to have you on board.

Many Thanks to Our Wonderful Homeowners
