Tradition Hilton Head Celebrates ‘Harvest of Values Home Tour’

Tradition Hilton Head announced its Harvest of Values Home Tour on Oct. 24, 25 and 26 here.

Hundreds of families and couples toured many of the eco-friendly showcase homes by preferred builders, were presented video plans for the 5,300-acre, master-planned, sustainable green community and its all-inclusive Town Village, and participated in complimentary golf clinics given by acclaimed PGA Professional David Wilding and his Tradition National Golf Course staff.

“We want to thank all of our neighbors and visitors to the Lowcountry for touring Tradition Hilton Head and learning more about its green sustainable master-planned community,” said General Manager Bob Swift.

Tradition Hilton Head’s green homes are energy-efficient and will save homeowners money in heating, cooling and irrigation costs, Swift said. Plus, a green home retains and increases their values over time, he said.

“Plus, green sustainable living is the way to go in protecting and living in harmony with the environment,” Swift said.

Wilding, Tradition National Golf Course’s Director of Golf, said he was pleased to offer the complimentary golf clinics.

“Tradition National Golf Course was able to showcase its 35-acre practice facility and six-hole par three course by offering complimentary golf clinics given by myself and our apprentice PGA Professional Steven Lewis,” Wilding said. “The clinics were offered on both Saturday and Sunday, twice daily. Due to the popularity of our facility, more clinics will be coming along in the future.”
