Some of Acworth’s most beautiful historic homes will open to tourists Oct. 29 to raise money for Brookwood Christian School’s building fund.
The Acworth History and Southern Charm Tour is co-sponsored by the school and Anchor Realty.
The tour begins at the home of Abbie and Boyd Parks, 4671 Collins St. (J.L. McMillan/Parks House), where there will be a silent auction, and a wine and cheese reception.
The tour includes a casual stroll to:
• Fletcher House
• Honeymoon House
• J.L. McMillan-Parks House
• McEver Building
• Moore-Watson House
• Rachelson House
• R.L. McMillan House
The tour is an easy 2.5-mile walk, according to organizers. A shuttle bus also is available, and tourists may drive their cars and park in designated areas.
At the end of the tour, participants return to the J.L. McMillan/Parks House for the conclusion of the silent auction and door prizes.
Tickets are $20 if purchased prior to 4 p.m. Oct. 14. Look for the school’s booth Oct. 14 at Acworth Business Association’s Taste of Acworth event in Historic Downtown Acworth. Tickets are $30 after that date.
