Home Tour & Poinsettia Sale
Our annual Holly Days Home Tour, supports our scholarship and community projects. Our 2009 Home Tour was held December 4th and 5th, 2009. Club members use all natural materials, fresh and dried, to decorate homes and the Historic First United Methodist Church for the holidays.
The Club’s Holiday event began in 1992 when the Punta Gorda Days committee invited the Punta Gorda Garden Club to help celebrate Punta Gorda's 100-year anniversary. That year wreaths were made for eight homes. The Club then began to hold the Holly Days Home Tour the following year and has continued to do so on the first weekend of December. In 2004 the tour was not held due to damage to the Historic District from Hurricane Charley. That year the Punta Gorda Garden Club sold poinsettias and invited vendors to sell plants; this supported the scholarship and community projects fund. The Club continues to sell poinsettias during the Home Tour.
On the Projects Page of this website you will find a list of the organizations to which the Club donates, thanks to the support of the Home Tour received from the community.
Please enjoy the photos of our Home Tour and we hope to see you next year when our tour is held December 3rd and 4th, 2010.
