Boulder County Tour of Solar & Green Homes :: Educational Materials

BUILD YOUR OWN SOLAR HOME TOUR
Not sure how to best utilize your time during the tour? The CRC has created detailed home profiles and the following chart which outlines the major sustainability features found at each home. Plus, we have clustered the homes into neighborhoods and along bus routes to limit vehicle use and drive time.
After registering online or at the CRC and picking up your tour map at the CRC, all you need to do is look over the chart, read the home profiles, determine which homes are of the most interest to you, and jump on your bike or RTD’s Hop, Skip, or Dash and go visit the homes!
