Chapel Associations's Island Garden Tour a HUGE Success
Island Gardens - a tour of many private gardens on Cousins and Littlejohn Islands, occurred on June 21, 2008. It was a huge success financially for the Chapel Restoration Fund and sociologically for the two islands'community .

The outpouring of interest and commitment to this event within our small community was the main reason for its success. Over 97 people volunteered including the 21 gardeners who graciously opened their private gardens to the public. Other neighbors were traffic control engineers, hosts and guides at the gardens, Art and Gift shop staff , greeters in the Chapel along with our resident organist, composting and bayscaping demonstrators, and ticket sales staff in the Community House.

On that Saturday morning the sun did shine, over 400 visitors came to view the lovely gardens and experience our islands. For the Chapel Restoration Fund the event raised over $12,000. But the greatest benefit was the realization of a renewed sense of community.

Needed: A Display Case
The CLIIA Board is seeking the donation of a display case that could be placed in the Community House for the display of historical items. If you have a piece of furniture that you think would meet this need, and you're willing to donate it, please contact one of our Board members. THANK YOU.
