Tickets for Fannin County Family Connection’s Christmas Tour of Homes fundraiser are on sale now.

Tickets cost $30 for individuals or $50 for couples, and can be purchased online at www.fcfc1.org or at the following locations: family connection, United Community Bank main branch or the Fannin County Chamber of Commerce.

There will be six homes on the tour, which will be held Sunday, December 5.

Ticket holders will be asked to pick up maps for the homes that day between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. at family connection, 501 Fannin Industrial Park, Blue Ridge.

During that time, there will also be a silent auction.

Homes will be open for tours from 1 p.m. until 6 p.m.

Ticket holders must drive themselves to the various locations, but for the homes located in downtown Blue Ridge, there will be a round-trip shuttle from family connection.

Sponsors for the tour are also needed. All sponsorships include social media recognition, printed recognition on programs and posters, and recognition in a thank you ad within the newspaper.

Diamond Level sponsorships starts at $1,000 and includes eight touring tickets; Gold Level is $750 with six tickets; Silver Level is $500 with four tickets, and Bronze Level is $250 with two tickets.

Anyone may donate up to $250, but they will not receive tickets.

All proceeds from the event benefit family connection and the local families they assist.
