The Bath Home Tour is an eagerly anticipated, much-celebrated community tradition. It is the annual signature fund-raising event for Bath Volunteers for Service.

Proceeds from the 2024 Home Tour made it possible for BVS to fulfill our mission of supporting programs to improve the lives of adults and children in Bath and Greater Akron area by awarding $55,000 in grants to 26 area nonprofit service organizations and providing five scholarship grants to graduating seniors residing in the Revere Local School District. For more information on the listing of the grantees, click here.

Thank you to the many 2024 sponsors, ticket purchasers, and our Homeowners who graciously provided their homes for the tour. 

This year, BVS will offer tour participants a Virtual/Video tour showcasing some of the area's not-to-be missed residences and landscapes. The Virtual Tour will be accessible for 12 days, 24/7, from Sunday, June 1 to Thursday, June 12.  That timeframe provides ample viewing flexibility with the opportunity to enjoy the homes at your leisure from any device - smartphone, smart TV, tablet, laptop or computer.

Imagine your own professionally filmed and narrated private tour through SIX exceptional homes, each unique.  One is historic and recently restored; one was a barn now converted into an extraordinary home; some offer garden features, others incomparable living spaces; but all are not to be missed. 

BVS is proud to recognize the valuable partnership with philanthropic community leaders at the Presenting and Diamond sponsorship level.
