Christmas in Carleton Place – House Tour

 

22

 

The holidays are a time to celebrate traditions and make new memories. Visitors to the fifth annual Christmas in Carleton Place House Tour Dec. 3 and 4 will not only find out how seven different homeowners mark the season, but also give back to a worthy cause.

The annual tour, which benefits the Carleton Place & District Memorial (CPDMH) Hospital Foundation, takes place Saturday evening, Dec. 3 from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m. or Sunday, Dec. 4 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Gartner’s country retreat is one of eight houses being featured on next month’s Christmas in Carleton Place House Tour, an annual fundraiser for the Carleton Place and Memorial District Hospital.

“We’re hoping to sell 1,000 tickets this year,” says Jane Tunks, who volunteers countless hours to organizing and promoting the annual tour. But she’s quick to point out: “It’s not about me. It’s all about the homeowners and their traditions and how they celebrate the holidays.”

Unlike some house tours, all of the owners will be in their homes during the tour to share details about the architecture of their houses and memories of Christmases past.

Date :
Saturday, December 3, 2016 | 4 :30 pm to 9 :30 pm
to Sunday, December 4, 2016 | 10 am to 4 pm

Event location :

Christmas Day

9

 

Many Christians in Canada mark the birth of Jesus Christ on December 25, which is known as Christmas Day. It is a day of celebration when many Canadians exchange gifts and enjoy festive meals.
 
Many Canadians have a day off work on December 25 and many spend the day with close relatives or friends. It is customary to exchange gifts, enjoy a special festive meal and, perhaps, attend a special church service.
 
The traditions centered on Christmas gifts in Canada vary a lot between families. In some families, a mythical figure called Santa Claus brings gifts. He travels on a sleigh pulled by reindeer, enters homes via the chimney and leaves presents and candy in Christmas stockings or in a pile under the Christmas tree.
 

Symbols of Christmas Day

 
There are many symbols of Christmas. These include images of baby Jesus and the Holy family in the stable, stars and Christmas trees. Another important symbol of Christmas is Santa Claus. This is a mythical figure with origins in European, particularly British, Dutch and German, cultures. He is a jolly man who wears a red suit, has a long white beard, lives at the North Pole and travels in a sleigh pulled by reindeer.
