Despite the heat, the Preview Party was a great success attracting over 1000 attendees. Here are some quick shots of those that took a first glance at the eight spectacular homes, saw the award winners get their hardware, and enjoyed a fabulous fare from Cameron Mitchell’s. 
Just can’t wait for the 2010 BIA Parade of Homes? You’re in luck! Throughout the past few weeks, Tracy Townsend has provided viewers with a preview of this year’s parade. To watch the clips and enter to win a 4-pack of tickets visit the BIA Parade of Homes section of 10tv.com.
In his idea video, Bob Webb “opens up” about the space planning in their Parade home.

Although the Parade of Homes is not a race, it’s inevitable that one or two builders reach the finish line a little earlier than the rest. A visit to the Parade site last week found the interior decorators from Andreas Furniture arranging furniture and making some finishing touches to the Weaver Custom Homes house.
And as the picture below reveals, there’s a lot to smile about when you finish up early.
We’re pleased to announce that next year’s Parade (okay, we know we still aren’t finished with this year’s event, but why wait to share good news?) will take place at a beautiful site in the heart of the New Albany community: Ackerly Park.
In 1991 and 1992, the BIA Parade of Homes was one of the first opportunities for people to see the new New Albany community; the event also returned there in 1999. The 2010 Parade site is within walking distance of the majority of the New Albany community’s amenities: Market Square, the school campus, several places of worshiop, and the McCoy Center for the Performing Arts.
If you are a builder interested in participating in next year’s Parade, let Jim Hilz at the BIA office know. The lot selection will likely take place by the end of September/early October.
For a map of the site and the complete press release, visit the Ackerly Park page on this web site. And help us welcome back the New Albany Company as a host developer for the Parade!
