Dates Set for 2010 Parade of Ponds
Annual Pond Tour in its 12th Year

Denver's premier pond tour is set for August 28-29, 2010. Once again, tour goers will be treated to the sites and sounds of approximately 50 ponds throughout the metro area. The two-day tour runs rain or shine from 9:00-5:00 Saturday and 11:00-5:00 Sunday.  
 
Tickets go on sale July 1, 2010 for the early bird price of $10 each. In August, tickets are $15 each.  Children 15 and under are free. If you prefer someone else do the driving, True Pump & Equipment in Denver offers its annual bus tour on Saturday only. Tickets are limited, so make your reservations early. Any homes in Castle Pines are accessible only on the bus tour. Call True Pump at 303-744-3505 or visit www.truepump.com for information.
 
"I've attended the Parade of Ponds tour every year now, and last year my pond was on the tour," notes Linda Lee. "I always admired all the beautiful water gardens on the tour. I am very glad I had a pond built in my own yard. It's my favorite spot to sit and relax as well as the best investment I've made in my property." One tour-goer said it was, "the most fun I've had all summer!"
 
Participating homeowners vie for an annual "Froggy Award" in seven different categories, so tour-goers are highly encouraged to fill out ballots and turn them in. New for 2010 is our random drawing and prize for one lucky attendee.
 
Proceeds to Benefit:
Hudson Gardens, Children's Hospital, North American Water Garden Society, Praying Hands Ranch and other various charities.
