Since 1972, when Pat Nixon first opened the White House gardens to the public, White House Garden tours have become an annual tradition!  This year the tours will be held on Saturday, April 12th from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday, April 13th from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m.  Visitors can enjoy the Jacqueline Kennedy Garden, the Rose Garden and the South Lawn of the White House, where military bands will be performing.  This event is open to the public but tickets are required.  Please visit the National Park Service kiosk at the Ellipse Visitor Pavilion located at 15th and E Streets, in order to pick up a ticket.  Tickets are free, but they are handed out on a first-come, first-serve basis beginning at 8 a.m. both days.  This event is fun for folks of all ages and one that should not be missed!
