Well Done Again!
Sutton Bridge in Bloom Report from Mrs. Teresa Hardy, Chairman
It is quite some time since the Sutton Bridge in Bloom team have appeared on these pages and I am pleased that our first report after such a lengthy absence, is full of good news.
The judging of Sutton Bridge took place on 14th July and although the in-bloom team and other volunteers worked extremely hard right up to the day of judging, we had been let down in a major way by the state of the hanging baskets which we had purchased from a well-known company in Derbyshire. To say that these baskets were not fit for purpose is an understatement. However, the situation was as it was when the judges visited us but we were hopeful that they would see past the baskets to the other work which we had done around the town and, as you can see below our efforts were rewarded.
Well Done Bloomers!
Following the judging in July, Sutton Bridge has been awarded East Midlands in Bloom 2010 BRONZE AWARD in the Small Town Category.The town has also been awarded the 2010 JUDGES AWARD for the 'Inspirational work of the "Big Bloomers" in developing pride in the local area'. Chair of the group, Teresa Hardy said "This is much more than we ever could have hoped for.
