10am - 4pm

Please join us as we show off some of historic Anaheim's finest vintage homes! The tour will include privately owned homes representing the diverse architectural styles in Anaheim, spanning the pre Civil War era to post WWII. Many visitors to our area are unaware that Anaheim is the oldest city in Orange County, and our historic districts have fine examples of homes from many different architectural periods. This tour gives old house lovers and history buffs the chance to discover some of our treasures built over the nearly 150 years of our City's history.

The Home Tour will also feature a Vintage Marketplace, sponsored by Realtor Meghan Shigo, with Historic Preservation groups and Restoration-related vendors, along with a food booth sponsored by St. Catherine's Military Academy. Also in the Marketplace we have the pleasure of presenting a distinguished guest speaker at noon, Rosemary Thornton, author of "The Houses that Sears Built" and "California Kit Homes."

We are also presenting a Vintage Car Show. Scheduled to be shown are the 1964 Corvette featured on TLC's Over-Haulin' and Carl Karcher's 1940 Plymouth, along with many other fully restored vintage cars and trucks.
