Local designers in Peterborough’s west end embellished their homes with festive decor. It was the combined efforts of volunteers, homeowners, businesses, interior designers and corporate sponsors that contributed to the event’s turnout according to Pat Hooper, Mapleridge Recreation Centre’s Community Chair.

“My sincere thanks to the many people and businesses who supported us in making this such a successful event,” Hooper said.

In addition to fundraising efforts such as the House Tour, Mapleridge is funded by donations, as well as municipal and provincial grants.
