Georgetown House Tour 2012 planning underway

Our wonderful House Tour showing off special houses in our beloved Georgetown isn't till next April but its leaders are already meeting to make plans. Stephanie Bothwell will be Chair for 2012, and Frida Burling gave a luncheon for 15 women yesterday at her home on 29th Street. Guests enjoyed seeing how formerly three little houses are now blended into one spacious home, with a wonderful Hugh Newell Jacobsen solarium onto the back garden. Naturally, nobody wanted to go home. This famous Tour was started in 1931 to help fund the needy. These funds are now needed as never before. Let's all celebrate the 80th tour, started and kept going by parishioners and friends of St. John's Church, Georgetown. More information here.
