Join CASA in November to see local builders’ creative playhouses and enter for a chance to win!
HUNTSVILLE, TX — The beloved Parade of Playhouses is back this year, featuring six local builders who have crafted unique, one-of-a-kind playhouses exclusively for the event, benefiting CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates). Each playhouse will be raffled off just in time for Christmas, making this a perfect opportunity for families to win a delightful addition to their backyard.
Throughout November, these charming playhouses will be on display at various locations in the community, including Prosperity Bank, VeraBank, Markham Realty, McWilliams Heating Cooling and Plumbing, and First Financial Bank in both Huntsville and New Waverly. The community is invited to come and admire the creativity and craftsmanship of these special creations.
The excitement culminates on Saturday, December 7, during the Annual Huntsville Lions Club Christmas Parade, where each playhouse will be showcased, beginning at 6:30 p.m.
Raffle tickets will be available for purchase starting November 1, priced at $25 each or five for $100. Tickets can be acquired through various methods, including:
