Description

GPPS is hosting its yearly FREE open house event Saturday, May 11, 2024, 9am- 4pm, at various locations around the valley. This family friendly event is open to the public, as GPPS members graciously open their private ponds for a day of public viewing.  Visit a wide variety of beautiful ponds across the valley, make new fish friends, ask pond owners questions, and delight in the sounds of babbling waters.

Our enthusiastic members enjoy sharing their ponds, big and small, and hope to inspire future pond lovers.  Whether your interests are in ponds, water gardens, koi, gold fish, turtles, fountains, or you are looking for some inspiration for your own yard, join us on May 11th!

The tour map, listing all the locations, is available on the GPPS website after Monday May 6th. 

www.phoenixponds.com  The tour is open house format, view the interactive map from our website and visit as many locations as you would like between 9 am and 4 pm- no public restrooms available, bring water and wear weather appropriate clothing, children must be accompanied by adults at all times.

GPPS was founded in 1996, and is a group of pond enthusiasts dedicated to the promotion of water gardening and fish keeping in the Arizona desert.
