GROWTHS: Garden Stroll 2010 | Enjoy a leisurely stroll through someone else's garden without getting threatened for trespassing! This tour benefits the western Wisconsin chapter of the American Red Cross and features seven different gardens in the Lake Wissota area.  The seven gardens showcase different styles and gardening interests while including one feature in common: they all sit on the waterfront of Lake Wissota. Strollers (get it?) are invited to enjoy complimentary refreshments at the Lafayette Town Hall. Tickets are available for sale at Mega Foods in Chippewa Falls, Gordy's County Market and True Value in Lake Wissota, and the American Red Cross offices in Chippewa Falls and Altoona. (Lake Wissota; Sun., 11am-4pm; $10)
