As we near the last hours before the 38th annual Holiday House Tour kicks off, here are a couple things to keep in mind:
- If you have questions, the best place to find someone well-versed on the House Tour Saturday and Sunday is the Bough and Dough Shop at the Winchester Little Theatre, 315 W. Boscawen St. The Shop is open Saturday 10 am-5 pm and on Sunday noon-5 pm. A PHW rep will also be at the ready on Sunday morning before the tour at our normal phone number, (540) 667-3577.
- The hours for the house tours are Saturday (Preview Party and Candlelight Tour), 6-9 PM, and Sunday (Daylight Tour) from 1-5 PM. The Preview Party house (510-512 S. Loudoun) will be open both days this year.
- There are additional tours at the Bough and Dough Shop during Shop hours, provided by the Winchester Little Theatre volunteers. Be sure to stop in and see them.
- There will be complimentary warm drinks at the Bough and Dough Shop as in previous years.
- Winchester Little Theatre will be selling slates for their roof project, and you may sign your name or write a message on the slate.
- The costumed carolers are expected to perform on Sunday 1:30-3:30 pm (weather permitting). They will start and end at the Winchester Little Theatre, and travel to the houses open on the tour.
- The weather is forecast as a chance of rain and overcast on Saturday and Sunday with temperatures in the mid-forties. Be sure to brings umbrellas or dress for possible drizzle while waiting outside.
