GRUNDY CENTER - From prairie-style gems to Victorian masterpieces - the architectural history of Grundy Center is rich and filled with stories. Those stories and that history will be on display during the Historic Home Tour on Thursday afternoon.
 
The tour - which is being hosted by the Grundy Center Chamber Main Street, Grundy Center Historical Society and the local P.E.O - will be held on Thursday, May 30 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. and will showcase four historic homes in Grundy Center in honor of National Historic Preservation Month in May.
 
Tour-goers will meet at the Grundy Center Historical Society Museum (610 7th Street) where they will be transported by trolley to each of the homes. Once at the homes, they will be met by knowledgable volunteers who will provide historical facts and interesting stories about the home.
 
Tickets are needed for the tour, and are available at the Grundy Center City Hall and online from www.GrundyCenterCMS.com - proceeds will benefit the P.E.O and Chamber-Main Street organization.
