With rain in the forecast for the weekend around Boulder County, some of our favorite boulder events will likely have to be put on hold until the beautiful sunshine returns. And while I think we can all agree that we are more than ready for blue skies and longer days, the timing couldn’t be better for this rain to roll in. We have the perfect indoor activity to keep you busy on this dreary weekend. Think home tours.

When buying a house, the number one thing buyers are typically looking for is an updated kitchen. And while we all dream of what that perfect kitchen would look like, we can’t all afford the price tag that so often comes along with it. So if you are in the market for a home that needs a bit of love and can be transformed into your perfect space, the Dream Kitchens Tour happening this weekend might be just the inspiration you are looking for. This event will highlight eleven kitchens designed by the best architects, designers and builders in Boulder County, with some of the most innovative kitchen features you have ever seen. And the good news is there are still tickets available, which can be purchased online or at the Have A Dream Office in Boulder. Plus, kids 12 and under are FREE!

This annual Boulder event benefits the I Have A Dream youth foundation, so you can feel good about where your ticket money is going. For the past 26 years, their mission has been empowering children from low-income communities to reach their full potential through a variety of programs with tutoring and mentoring. Last year’s tour raised more than $12,000 so why don’t we see if we can help them top that this year? Round up your family and friends for a fun afternoon touring some of the most beautiful houses in the county.
