COMMITTEE LETTER WE HOPE YOU ENJOY THE THIRD ANNUAL BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAINS PARADE OF HOMES

With 2020 being such an overwhelming success, we are extremely excited to once again showcase our hometown of Blue Ridge, Georgia, and the surrounding tri-county regions of the North Georgia Mountains. This year’s parade lineup is impressive. We have a wide array of properties, including lakefront, creekfront, mountaintop, and subdivision, all on display for your viewing pleasure.

Our builders have yet again gone over the top in their efforts to bring you the craftsmanship and attention to detail that has set a new standard for home building in the North Georgia Mountains. These exquisite homes range in size from 2,500 square feet to over 7,000 square feet.

Each one offers a unique opportunity to see the latest trends in new home construction, new home products, architectural and interior design, as well as a chance to interact with our builders. Whether you’re just looking for new ideas for a remodel project or someone to build your next dream home in the mountains, the 2021 Blue Ridge Mountains Parade of Homes offers something fun for everyone. Please remember, our event is not just about building homes and meeting new clients. It’s about giving back to our community. All proceeds from event ticket sales will go to the Blue Ridge Mountains Parade of Homes Scholarship Foundation. Through your generosity, this charitable organization provides funding and scholarship opportunities for high school kids in our region to help further their education in technical, vocational, and tradesman fields.

Planning and preparation for the 2021 Blue Ridge Mountains Parade of Homes began just as soon as last year’s parade ended. It was another year-long process that would not have been possible without the continued efforts and endless dedication of our Parade of Homes Committee, our community, our team members, and all the contributing sponsors who have helped bring this annual event to life.

All of whom deserve more recognition than we can give.

A special thanks go out to Pete and Kim Folger of Folger Gas, and Joanne Wiley, Rachel Callihan Cowart, and Logan Fitts, of Harry Norman Realtors in Blue Ridge for being our 2021 Presenting Sponsors. We would also like to thank the Sisson family of Sisson Log Homes, the Fannin & Glimer County Chamber of Commerce, Terry Lee Wilson and Jay Hamilton of Wilson Hamilton LLC Real Estate Law, Town and Country Furniture and the rest of our sponsors for standing by us, believing in the vision, and helping us see it to fruition.

The fund donates all proceeds from the annual events ticket sales to scholarships for local students who wish to further their education in the trade industry. The Sisson family has always believed in giving back to the community they live in.

What better way to do so than to support the next generation of contractors, builders, and tradespeople.
