St Vincent’s Annual Tour of Homes and Tea – Savannah, Georgia

October 13, 2008 by Susanne Talentino

St. Vincent’s Academy is again hosting this popular self-guided tour of the original 1845 Convent building and eight private homes in Savannah’s Historic District.

This year’s tour of homes promises to be a fascinating look inside nine residences in Savannah’s Historic District. Some of the homes reflect their 19th century origin in architectural style, interiors and furnishings, while others offer an exciting contemporary approach to downtown living.

Certainly, the centerpiece of Savannah’s only fall tour of homes is the elegant tea which will be served on the grounds of the Convent. Academy students will serve a delicate repast of tea, homemade confections and traditional tea sandwiches.

St. Vincent’s has enjoyed an enduring relationship with St. Joseph’s since 1875, when the Sisters of Mercy established St. Joseph’s Hospital in downtown Savannah. Proceeds from the Tour & Tea benefit the preservation and restoration of the historic Convent.

Come see for yourself why native Savannahians and out-of-towners alike say this annual fall event is “the best tour in Savannah.”

Tour Hours: 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Saturday, October 18, 2008 only

Tickets: $40 per person (includes Tea at the Convent) plus handling charge for online and phone orders. Call (912) 819-7780 for reservations and tickets or visit St Vincents Tour of Homes and Tea website

Battlefield March and Breakfast – Savannah, GA

October 8, 2008 by etalentino

At dawn on October 9, 1779, thousands of soldiers from many nations clashed for control of the British-held city of Savannah–Georgia’s colonial capital. Each year, on the date of the battle and near the time of the attack, we gather to march in the footsteps of the attackers and remember the sacrifice of soldiers on both sides of this bloody battle.

Please meet in the Savannah History Museum/Visitors Center parking lot at 7am on Thursday, October 9th. Marching behind musicians and flag-bearers, we will proceed to Battlefield Memorial Park for a brief ceremony. Members of heritage groups are invited to place wreaths in honor of those who fought in the battle.

For more information, please contact Michael Jordan at mjordan@chsgeorgia.org. or call (912) 651-3673. visit the website by clicking here.
