2008 Annual Parade Of Ponds
Celebrating the Urban Cottage Lifestyle
Now in its 4th consecutive year, The Pond Clinic Water Garden Centre is proud to present what has become the most successful pond tour in Canada . A dozen area families and businesses have offered to share their spectacular water garden creations with the public and help raise money to fund research initiatives by the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation. Last year over 200 guests joined in on the fun and helped raise $3,192.00!
And the positive feedback from everyone involved just keeps pouring in. June Hansen wrote saying, "I just wanted to thank you and your organizers for sponsoring such a fabulous weekend. We came out, at the end of the day, extremely motivated and inspired. It was such a welcome change to be among so many people that shared the same wonderful hobby and who willingly opened their wealth of knowledge to others."
Guests of this self-guided tour will be given a ticket book with maps and directions to help guide them from pond to pond at a relaxing pace. After the tour on Saturday evening, everyone is invited to gather together for a pond side BBQ reception.
