Find Inspiration for Your Backyard: Outdoor Living Tour

For 15 years, In&Out Magazine has been the definitive source of “Everything that’s going on” in and out of the community. We thank you, our readers, as well as the businesses that support the magazine through advertising, for that opportunity. But with little going on, and many businesses suspending or canceling their ads during the Covid-19 crisis, we are suspending publication of the magazine and web sites for the month of May.

Wanting to spruce up your backyard? Maybe create that dreamy outdoor oasis? A public tour of 10 decked-out backyards in Anthem Country Club could provide just the inspiration you need.

The tour includes yards with “pools and spas, outdoor kitchens and a pizza oven, pergolas, a sauna room, fire bowls and fireplaces, areas for dining, relaxing, and even TV watching,” said Debbie Scott, committee member for the event.

A total of 450 tickets are available for advance purchase, or the day of, if available. Proceeds benefit Anthem Cares Through Service (ACTS), a community organization that provides emergency, short-term financial assistance and caring support to families in need.  

The tour will take place rain or shine, and Scott says guests can expect some special surprises, including antique cars (well, we kinda spoiled that surprise!).
