PTA News: Thanks to Hoover tour committee

Share

Thanks to Keith Sorem and his committee who worked so hard to put on another wonderful Tour of Homes. Thanks to the many students and parents who served as docents, bakers, performers and helpers on tour day. And a special thank you to those who opened their beautiful homes and the talented florists who added to the holiday décor. The Tour of Homes is a true community effort and was, once again, a great event.
