News : Thanks extended for the Blooming Vinton Hanging Basket Program

A special recognition was given to those responsible for the gorgeous flowering baskets in Vinton

The Blooming Vinton Hanging Basket Program was a project supported by the Cottage Garden Society, Vinton Parks and Recreation and the Flowerpot Committee.

Committee members helped to put the flower project together. A special thank you was extended to Cindy Elwick on Thursday night's Farmer's Market program. Elwick funded the project in memory of Jay, Susan, and Barbara Bolin.

Vinton Parks and Recreation's Scott Wirth said, "The Blooming Vinton Hanging Basket Program has brought a beautiful pop of color to downtown, and it's a memorial that has become part of the community's everyday downtown experience." Wirth continued, "The Cottage Garden Society, Parks and Rec, and our Flowerpot Committee members helped pull it together, but Cindy's generosity made it possible. Cindy, thank you for making downtown Vinton bloom."
