Fillmore’s Flower Show almost here

Fillmore’s Flower Show is almost here! April 13-14, 2013 at the Fillmore Senior Center, 533 Santa Clara Street, we will be accepting entries from 7:30AM to 10:30AM. Youth entries should arrive early with their flowers and “props” to have time for their arrangement to take place in unhurried fashion.

Our judges are certified and judge the Ventura County Fair entries, so we are very privileged to have them with their busy year-round schedule.

This revival of a tradition that began before WWI draws the community , young and old, together to celebrate beauty, creativity and the pleasure of growing things in our own yards!! Consider the fun and satisfaction of entering this show, “Fiesta of Flowers” with your own garden flowers. The youth also have the option of using flowers from a relative or mentor’s yard.

The show will be open to the public between 1pm-4pm both days. Music of piano and guitar will add enjoyment to this FREE event.

Entry divisions are listed in brochures available at The Treasure Station, library, City Hall, Historical Museum and Patterson’s Hardware store.

All helper volunteers are invited to join us to “set up” for the show on Friday at the Senior Center at 3:30pm. Hostesses are also needed during the daily, open to the public hours from 1-4pm.

Please be a part of this great community event and show off your flowers and artistry!!
