There are two awards voted for by the general public at the Parade of Homes each year, the People's Choice awards.  There is an award for Favorite House and a second award for Favorite Interior Decor. 

The winner of the Central Ohio BIA 's People's Choice Award at the Parade of Homes was New England Homes for Favorite House!  The winner of the Peoples Choice Award was New England Homes for Favorite Interior Decor!  This is according to a BIA Blueprint a BIA / Daily Reporter Publication dated Monday July 11, 2006 (Monday was the 10th of July.)   Today is Tuesday July 11, 2006.

The Sheffield Park home was gorgeous inside and out.  I worked one short shift at the house during the Parade of Homes and all the people who came through said it was the best house!

Congratulations to New England Homes, Doug, John and Jim... I think.   The New England Homes house was the Fondation House for the 2006 BIA Parade of Homes.

 A May This Week newspaper article written by Bonnie Butcher  "Parade of Homes site has lots of open space" said:

"Few housing developments in Delaware County retain the rural sense of the land from which they sprang, but more than 40 percent of Sheffield Park in Genoa Township will remain green.

Centex Homes and Virginia Homes developed the 214-acre site which includes more than 90 acres of accessible green space and more than two miles of walkways, said Charles Ruma of Virginia Homes. "
