All of the homes on the tour are fully deeked out for the holi- days in Christmas finery and flow- ers, and great decorating ideas, by a design team of are interior deco- rators and accessory specialists. The interest in organizing the Country Christmas Home Tour re- flects the incredible building spurt of new luxury homes that the Lakeshore District of Bosanquct Township has experienced over the past decade. The tour will highlight a full range of homes and decorating styles, and so be able to provide ideas adaptable to houses large or small. Many visitors to the Lake Huron district are also curious about the interiors of some homes when they tour through subdivisions such as Southcott Pines. This tour provides a rare opportunity for the general public to take in the interiors of these same homes when they are all decked out at their finest. The tour mute passport may be obtained at the Southcou Pines clubhouse, located off 'of Lake- view Ave at Highway 21, the south entrance to Southcott Pines subdivision. (Just follow the signs).
