Marys River Quilt Guild 2009 Raffle Quilt, Mariners Rainbow, will be on display at the Cauthorn Garden. Tickets are $1 each, or 6 for $5. Be sure and view this gorgeous quilt. There will also be tote bags available for $12 each. We have attempted to make this Tour as accessible as possible to all, but there are gardens with narrow paths, shallow and steep steps as well as inclines (basically not wheelchair friendly) although there are some vantage points for viewing from afar. The garden descriptions on the inside indicate all possible accessibility issues and any parking congestion areas.
There are no rest room facilities available at the gardens. There is public rest room at Cloverland Park across the street from the garden on 29th Street, and one at MLK Park on Walnut Blvd.
Each of the gardens has been set up with an entrance and an exit route to help with traffic flow. Please follow these signs.
Marys River Quilt Guild members and garden homeowners will be wearing name tags for those of you who may have questions about the gardens, quilts, directions, etc.
Please do not touch the quilts.
In the event of rain the Garden Tour will be cancelled.
