If you took advantage of our cool weekend by working in your backyard, you've probably come up with lots of plans to improve your backyard oasis. If those plans include a pond, a tour of area ponds will give you some inspiration.
The Fourth Annual Purely Ponds Parade of Ponds will be held June 26 - 27. The self-guided tour will include 28 stops throughout the Colorado Springs area.
Tickets and tour maps are available for $5 per ticket at all three Pioneer Sand locations in Colorado Springs, Monument, and Black Forest; at the Home Improvement Showcase in the Chapel Hills Mall; or by mail: Purely Ponds, 14940 Vollmer Rd., Colorado Springs, CO 80908. Include a self-addressed, stamped envelope with 75-cents postage.
Proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the Boys and Girls Club.
