Holiday tours of governor's mansion set

Posted:

Madison (AP) - The governor's mansion in Maple Bluff will be open to the public seven days in December for holiday tours.

The first 30-minute tours are Dec. 9 and they end Dec. 19.

Each tour includes a brief history of the executive residence, which is decorated with six Wisconsin-themed trees.

One is a tribute to the troops, another showcases the state's biotech companies and another highlights family farms. Another represents Nigerian heritage in Wisconsin, one celebrates the diversity of the state's 72 counties and another features ornaments made by fourth graders based on their favorite holiday movies.

While the tours are free, participants are asked to donate a children's book which will be distributed to literacy organizations.
