Come join us at the home of our board members Adrienne Copland and Mike Finney. This beautiful home was built in 1914 in the Villa Place Historic District. Longtime residents will remember this as the home of Chief "Red" Nichols. It had fallen into disrepair over the years, but the current owners have rehabbed the interior and exterior to bring back the historic charm. They have restored the original exterior, returned it to it's original floor plan, and made the house usable again with modern conveniences that are hidden with period appropriate finishes and fixtures. This is a house tour you won't want to miss.

A short house history will be given at 6:15 pm.
