The Governor Wolf Historical Society will hold its 32nd annual Christmas house tour of historic homes and landmarks Saturday, Dec. 1, 10 a.m.-4 p.m. A patrons' tour will be held Friday evening, Nov. 30. The society's campus, 6600 Jacksonville Road, will again be open for the tour with crafters in all three buildings, a fresh wreath and swag sale, hearth cooking demonstration and tastings, complimentary refreshments and more.

Tickets for the tour are on sale now at Bath Drug, S. Seem Antiques and Artisans, Country Capers, Curt's Cyclery and Miller Supply Ace Hardware.
