Get into the holiday spirit!

Celebrate Highland: A Holiday Home Tour returns in December! On December 5 and 6, the holidays will be celebrated in a distinctly Highland way and you're invited to participate! The very popular holiday home tour returns with a Saturday night candlelight tour and a Sunday afternoon tour of architectural gems throughout the Highland and Fairfield Historic Districts.

Celebrate Highland: A Holiday Home Tour, will kick off Saturday evening at 5 p.m. at the Noel Mansion at 555 Herndon with complimentary wine and hors d'oeuvres. Visitors can choose to leave their cars at the Noel United Methodist Church parking lot and take the free shuttle to the houses on the tour or drive using a provided map.

On Sunday, the tour will begin at the beautiful Randle T. Moore Center at 3101 Fairfield Avenue at 1 p.m. Coffee, cookies and live music will be provided. The free shuttle will run from the Moore Center to the homes and a map will be provided for those who chose to drive. The tour allows a glimpse into Highland's multiple architectural styles: Four Square, Tudor, Bungalow, Mediterranean; even a 1920s-era grocery store will be on the tour!

Be aware that DIFFERENT homes will be on the tour Saturday and Sunday so to see all that Celebrate Highland has to offer, you will want to purchase the two-day tour pass available on line at www.celebratehighland.com or by calling 318-221-5629. Special thanks go to tour sponsors John David Stewart of ISA/Stewart Insurance, Shreveport-Bossier Convention and Tourist Bureau and Republic National Distributing Company. Their sponsorship dollars and support will help make the 2009 home tour the best ever.
