| Port
Perry United Church Community Outreach presents our
annual Town & Country House Tour on Saturday,
September 24, 2011, from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Last year,
brilliant sunshine and blue skies greeted over 370 house tour
enthusiasts. It truly was an amazing day as people toured seven
fine homes -- four century homes and three more modern homes
-- in beautiful, historic Port Perry, Prince Albert and surrounding
area. This year promises to be even better with a tremendous
array of homes and historic buildings lined up for your viewing
pleasure!
Don’t
forget to visit the House Tour Café
at Port
Perry United Church for complimentary homemade baked goods
and refreshments while enjoying a fascinating exhibit of art
and paintings presented by the members of the Port Perry Artists
Association. In celebration of the Church’s 125th Anniversary,
there will be a display of antique dresses and a table setting
of antique china and Church memorabilia in the Sanctuary.
This
is a charitable event with all proceeds supporting three very
important local organizations -- Joanne's
House (formerly Durham Youth Housing and Support Services),
Community Care Durham and YWCA
Durham's Second Stage Housing for Women.
We
are excited about this project. Not
only will you have a wonderful day full of amazing architecture,
lovely gardens, and inspiring decorating, but you will also
make a positive impact on at-risk youth, women, and the elderly
within our community.
