The event will be part of the 3rd annual Travis College Hill Historic Home Tour. The home tour will be from noon to 4 p.m.; the ceremony and plaque-unveiling will be at 2 p.m. Travis College Hill is situated between Avenues B and D on South 11th Street near downtown Garland, Texas. A "Tell Your Own Story" interactive booth will be part of this year's event. Guests are invited to relate their personal stories of their own growing-up neighborhoods and homes and what has become of them. Travis College Hill consists of a two-block area in historic downtown Garland on the 300-400 blocks of South 11th Street. The area was platted in 1913 and represents an intact, extant enclave of Craftsman-influenced bungalows. Several dwellings were built in the 1910s and 1920s. Admission is $10 for adults ($5 for children ages 3-12, under age 3 free).
