2011 Pond and Garden Tour is
June 25 & 26, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m.
The 2011 Pond-O-Rama Pond and Garden tour will feature 42 beautiful gardens located throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area and in the metro east. You can go north or south, east or west, or in all directions, and find St. Louis Water Gardening Society members ready to share their gardens and talk about their ponds. Each location is scheduled for one of the two days of the tour, either Saturday, June 25, or Sunday, June 26. The hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. About one-third of the locations are new to the tour this year, so there will be a lot to see-plan to spend both days visiting with our members.

Tickets for the tour will be available to members at the May and June general meetings. Each member household is entitled to two free tickets. Each person 18 years of age or older visiting the gardens must have a ticket. Children under the age of 18 do not need a ticket. Tickets will be delivered to retail outlets in mid-May and should be available for sale by May 25. For a list of all retailers who are selling Pond-O-Rama tickets, click here.


You can buy tickets at our May or June regular meeting, or you can order tickets from this website to be sent by mail at a cost of $2 per ticket ordered. Click here for a copy of the order to print out and mail with your check. (Remember to add $2 per ticket ordered for handling and postage costs.)
