The Summerville Neighborhood Association Tour of Homes Post is the direct mail magazine that goes out to over 6,000 homes and businesses in the Summerville Neighborhood; Augusta’s most historic and affluent neighborhood.
This Post is the widest read, because of it’s information about the tour and the architectural descriptions of the homes that will be on tour. Also, this year we are celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Partridge Inn and will be tying that into the tour of homes. The P.I is holding it’s celebration later in October and those who attend the tour of homes receive an extra drink ticket at the P.I event.
