Southwind Garden Club decorates the TPC Club House for the Holidays




Members of the Southwind Garden Club get together

the Monday after Thanksgiving to fluff garland, primp wreaths, test out lights, make bows and put up trees and trees and more trees, each decorated differently.  We decorate the outside front entrance right thru the club house to the balcony on the back of the facility. We get started at 8am and finish
around 6pm with a short lunch break. By the time we are done the Southwind TPC Club House looks
very festive and kick starts our desires to ready our own homes for the Holidays.













Holiday Gate Decorating



Each year the Southwind Garden Club decorates the gate houses and entrances. This year we started with breakfast, danish and coffee while the electricians prepared the connections for us.
Then we unloaded the barrels of decorations and got started. Hung up wreaths, fluffed
garland and hung it around the eves of the Gate House, wrapped tree branches and bushes
and dusted off the nutcracker.
 
It's beginning to look alot like the Holidays are here!
