Welcome

I'm pleased to welcome you to my blog about the Washington-Wilkes Spring Tours for the last few years. In the absence of a good system for recording the history of each year's tour I've been compelled to extract available articles about the tours from the archives of The News-Reporter.

Volunteers make the 2006 Tour go 'round

Getting ready for this weekend's 2006 Spring Tour of Homes are three of some 300 local volunteers who help make the annual Tour a springtime destination for visitors from all over. Atop a ladder on The Square, Bob Simmons tightens up the Welcome banner as Bill Steed holds the ladder safely in position and Mark Waters keeps an eye peeled for lightning. The weather this weekend will be perfect, the retired meteorologist promises.
