Three Roswell Historic Homes Showcased

This Saturday, September 27th, in recognition of Smithsonian National Museum Day, Roswell will open the three most popular historic homes and offer free tours.  The campaign is to highlight Barrington Hall, Bulloch Hall and the Smith Plantation.  The tours are in conjunction with City of Roswell’s launch event for the Preserve American Grant initiative. 

In March 2006, Laura Bush, First Lady of the United States and Honorary Chair of Preserve America, announced the first round of Preserve America Grants totaling $3.5 million.  This grant was spread out among 28 states representing all regions of the country.  Roswell was one of the first 45 recipients.
