A big Thank You goes out to all of our builders who participated in the 2017 Parade of Homes Tour. We appreciate all the hard work and extra effort it takes to place a home in the Parade. And Thanks again to those of you who sponsored the event and advertised in the directory. It would not be possible without you! A special Thank you also goes out to Gerb Smith, Mark Ernst, and Joel Mozena, who made a lot of things happen during the planning stages.
