Montgomery 2022 Floral Display Contest Registration Open
Montgomery, IL - The Montgomery Beautification Committee is once again sponsoring a Summer Floral Display Contest. "This is an opportunity to recognize homes and businesses for exceptional landscape displays featuring annual and perennial flowers," says Dan Gier, Village Trustee. Beautification Committee members will give recognition awards to those homes that best meet the contest criteria: displays must be predominantly floral; live plants only (no artificial, silk, etc.); flower displays may be in-ground or containers; perennial and annual flowering plants are acceptable: and the display must add "curb appeal" to the property. Residents can nominate their property or someone else's by submitting the property address via the Village website.
On the evening of Wednesday, June 29, committee members and volunteer judges will visit all nominated addresses to select the winners. The committee will place a sign on the evening of judging in front of the properties chosen for recognition. The committee asks winners to leave these signs up for at least two weeks. In addition, a list of winning addresses will be published. Gier states, "We have residents and businesses pouring their hearts and souls into their landscaping and gardens. It is great to be able to recognize those who truly add to the beauty of our community."
The Village of Montgomery Beautification Committee will accept online nominations through Sunday, June 26. Nominate a property via the Village website or by emailing rmason@montgomeryil.org. For questions, please contact the Montgomery Public Works Department at 630-896-9241.
