Visit Christmas Card Lane

Please visit the Christmas Card Lane at the Charlotte Harbor Event and Conference Center (downtown Punta Gorda).  This is a new location this year because of the Construction in Gilchrist Park.
This Christmas Card Lane is sponsored by the Punta Gorda Kiwanis Club. Continuing a long tradition, the Kiwanis Cub of Punta Gorda has organized Christmas Card Lane since 1999.  The PGSC Christmas Card has been a part of this tradition for many years thanks to our members John and BJ Fox Family who designed and created our beautiful card on display with all the other local organizations.
