Arizona's longest running Home Tour
Saturday, May 16th and Sunday, May 17th, 2009
9:00 AM to 3:00PM
First tour leaves at 9 a.m. and the last tour leaves at 3 p.m. The
first hour or so tends to have long lines so feel free to come in
the middle of the day!
Visit nine historic homes and buildings though out the town.
Shuttle provided for the tour.
Walking and steps are part of the fun.
Wear comfortable shoes and dress in layers.
This year promises to be an exciting and interesting
tour with the first
look into the Phelps Dodge Administrative Office, which has been lovingly
restored at one end of town as well as one of Jerome's modern-day dream
houses
that have been works in progress for many years and are now ready
for prime time.
A classic Victorian house, a 1904 cottage, and authentic
Gypsy Wagon, the lovely and haunting Holy Cross Catholic Church, the
Ladies Jail, and a charming 1914 home on the main road into Jerome that
was built for mining management and has been family owned since 1941,
all
fill out a roster that gives a cross-section of Jerome, then and now.
End the tour with refreshments at Jerome's famous 'Spook Hall'.
This event is to benefit
The Jerome Chamber of Commerce and their
projects for the coming year.
