Merrily we roll (our hoops!) along Tupelo Lane. Housing a few important, well, houses (as well as our hoop rolling tradition)! Billings, Schneider, Harambee House, Acorns House, Slater International Center, and the Continuing Education House live on this picturesque lakeside lane. Feel free to take a walk down Tupelo, but note that doing so will add a few extra minutes to your tour.
