The Vickery Place Centennial Home Tour last weekend sold more than 550 tickets, a record for the neighborhood’s home tour.
Tour organizer Debbie Simurda declined to say how much money the tour raised, but that it “did exceed our expectations.”
The neighborhood association will use the money to buy street-sign toppers for the neighborhood. Their current sign toppers are over 20 years old and are bleached from the sun.
The association also will make donations to Animal Rescue of Texas and James B. Bonham Elementary School, which was the original Vickery Place School, built before 1920.
