The 1999 House Tour, held this past July 16th through the 18th, was attended by just under 1,100 people and was a successful fundraising event for Historic Georgetown, Inc. as well. We gratefully acknowledge Board Vice-Chairman Dana Abrahamson for chairing the event and the following Georgetown residents for opening their homes to the public: Bill and Kathie Wilson, Joyce and Kerry Pedlow, Jane and Harry Robertson, Bob and Connie Primus, John and Sandy Jackson, Rebecca Whittaker, Sharon Smith, and Dick Dorn and Barbara Jackson. In addition we'd like to thank: The Georgetown Energy Museum, The Hotel de Paris, Grace Episcopal Church, Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, The First Presbyterian Church and the Old Georgetown Station for participating in the tour and all the many volunteers who gave their time to guide visitors through the homes and public buildings.
