We sincerely appreciate all those rosarians who entered roses in our Rose Show and our Judges and hope everyone enjoyed the show. In spite of the drought we had quite a few roses. You are also welcome to come back to Bogan Park on March 3, 2009 for our annual Rose Day. We will have programs, roses and we will prune the roses which are at the park. Hope you will join us. Below are a few pictures from the show. If you could or did not make it this will give you an idea of a rose show.

Below are closeup pictures of the Modern Transparency by Bobbie Reed and Dried Arrangement by Diane Snyder.

We tried something different this year. We had a Dried Arrangements class and a "Fun Bouquet", which was whatever you wanted to do.

Minature and MiniFlora Arrangements

Above are Miniature and Mini-Flora roses on the risers.

Last, but not least we thank Kim Borland for arranging our lunch and Diane Snyder for arranging and, in part, providing the Judge's breakfast and the delicious snacks. Thanks also to our food contributors; they were very much appreciated.
