The Eufaula Pilgrimage
Every April spring blooms in Eufaula just in time for the annual Eufaula Pilgrimage. Set on a backdrop of colorful azaleas and dogwoods, Alabama's Oldest Tour of Homes draws you back in time to experience the settlement of Eufaula, confrontation with Yankee troops, and life when "cotton was king." Marvel at pristine examples of Greek Revival, Victorian, and Italianate architecture as you meander through picturesque streets speckled with homegrown entertainment and award winning artists. While the homes open for tour vary each year, the warm hospitality does not. Southern belles draped in colorful hoop skirts guide you through the homes, sharing bits of history and legend along the way. At the close of the day you will leave with your own piece of charm to travel home with you.
The Pilgrimage Includes:
- Daily Home Tours - public & private residences open their doors to display family heirlooms & history
- Candlelight Tours - experience the elegance of homes by glowing candlelight
- Garden and Church Tours - open daily
- Art Show - professional artists from across the southeast gather under the dogwoods of Randolph Avenue
- Afternoon Teas at Fendall Hall - reservation only

Chamber Golf Tournament
Every year in late spring or early summer, the annual Chamber Golf Tournament is anticipated by golfers everywhere! Golfers of every skill level come out and enjoy good food, good cheer, and a lot of good people in 18 holes of fun. Businesses large and small come together to support a good cause; all proceeds go to scholarships at Wallace Community College–Sparks Campus here in Eufaula. 2012 marked the 17th consecutive year the Chamber has hosted its golf scramble, raising over $50,000 in scholarship funds for Wallace Community College-Sparks Campus.
