Remember the grand Fillmore Flower shows that were held for more than 60 years? Civic Pride members with the help of other interested parties would like to bring it back. Now, it is well on its way to becoming "alive" once again thanks to the leadership of Linda Nunes and Joanne King.

Recently, a group met with the idea that the Fillmore Flower Show will be held this year, April 4th & 5th at the Fillmore Community Center (Senior Center). The show will be open to the public from 1-4pm each day. Entry times will be Saturday April 4th from 7:30am-10:30am.

The flower show committee, hoping the show to be well attended, is working to organize the details. Some of the tasks left include judges, brochures, newspaper articles, to inform interested groups (Boy Scouts, FFA, and other youth groups), and informing all the interested gardening advocates within the city and Fillmore area.
Planning meetings will be held Mondays at 1:30pm in the city hall conference room, each week until the show. An exception will be February 16th, due to the Presidents Day Holiday. Instead, the meeting will be Tuesday at 1:30pm, same location.

It is hoped that residents with Roses, Iris, potted plants (no hanging plants this year), and other miscellaneous flowers will take the time to enter them into the flower show.
You are also welcome to join the planning group which meets at Fillmore City Hall each Monday at 1:30pm.
