Tour of Homes 2003
The Community Library Association

The Community Library Association is proud to present the 25th Tour of Homes, a showcase of architecturally distinctive and uniquely landscaped homes in the Sun Valley area.
The owners of these showcased homes have generously opened their homes for the day to help The Community Library, a nonprofit organization, provide free library services to the public. The Library receives no tax money and is funded by events such as the Tour of Homes, proceeds from the Gold Mine Thrift Shop, and donations both large and small.
Your ticket to the Tour of Homes provides an opportunity to tour some of the most beautiful private homes in the area while supporting free public library services. Please join in supporting this wonderful resource!
