Homes Tour
2009 Homes Tour Summary:

The June 7th, 2009 CFUW Homes Tour was another resounding success as local home owners invited visitors  into their homes in support of  the scholarship fund which awards scholarships to young Orillia women who are planning to continue their education at the college/university level.

Guests were able to tour 5 unique homes showcasing a variety of styles, architecture, settings and decor, enjoy delicious refreshments at the Couchiching Inn and spend a pleasant afternoon in the company of friends, CFUW members and previous scholarship winners.

The club is pleased to announce that over 9,100 dollars was raised to be used solely for scholarships. Fifteen scholarships will be awarded at the June commencement ceremonies of 4 Orillia schools. The deserving students met the CFUW/Orillia criteria of Academic Ability, Integrity, Love of Learning, Leadership, and School and Community Involvement.

CFUW thanks all of our homeowners for graciously offering their homes.

As well, the Homes Tour Committee wishes to thank Couchiching Inn for the venue; Josie Manna, broker of record/owner, Royal LePage for sponsoring the tea; and the following florists for their contribution of custom arrangements designed to enhance each home: Evans Flowers, Streets Flowers, House of Wonders, Sandy's Flowers, Zehr's Florists, and Flowers by June.

If anyone is interested in offering their home to be part of a future CFUW Homes Tours, please contact us at cfuworillia@Gmail.com.
