Garden Tour Report from July 21st, 2007 :
Last year's Garden Tour was the largest ever!
Summit County Garden Club wishes to thank the members of the community who supported our mission by attending in record numbers the recent tour of private gardens. The weather cooperated and the gardens on the tour were filled with appreciative people all day long.
A special thanks to the homeowners who gave of their time and efforts and opened their properties to the public. Thank you also to the tour committee, especially Sue Bement, chair. Suzie Rawles and Pat Steiner outdid themselves once again with great food to greet the ticket buyers.
Congratulations to Mike Jackman, artist for this year's poster contest. Thank you to affordable art and framing in Silverthorne for the great framing offer to purchase of posters.
Summit County Garden Club is a nonprofit organization open to all. All funds raised the day of the tour will be returned to the community in the form of grants for beautification of public spaces.
