Soroptimist International of Quincy provides many
fundraisers
each year to benefit the community and specifically women and
children.
The Garden Tour fundraiser has enjoyed great success since its
inception four years ago. The year 2006 will bring
Soroptimists 5th Annual Garden Tour to the greater Plumas County
area which for many residents is a very anticipated event. The
Tour offers a chance to view an eclectic selection of
gardens and landscapes complete with the small creatures which
reside there including butterflies, frogs, fish, bees, birds and the
homeowners who manage these microcosms and kindly open their homes
to assist our group in this endeavor. Without the hard
work and generosity of past, present and future gardening
enthusiasts this project would not exist.
Tickets purchased
for this event offer many benefits:
-
The
opportunity to view beautiful gardens & landscapes in Quincy and
the surrounding areas;
-
A day
long opportunity to commune with fellow gardeners and meet like
minded individuals who share the positive addiction of
gardening;
-
Attend and participate in events of the day such as a pruning
demonstration, a raffle for the Garden Tour basket,
refreshments, snacks and more.
-
Pre-sale tickets are $12.00 and $15.00 on the day of the event.
