Central Huron awarded four blooms
Laura Broadley
Clinton News Record
For the second year in a
row Central Huron has been
awarded four blooms out of
a possible five from the
Communities in Bloom
judges.
The tireless effort of the
eight CIB committee mem-
bers resulted in a mark of 78
per cent, just 4 percentage
points under what would be
a five bloom rating.
Committee co-chair Marg
Anderson said she is proud
of the community because
membership doubled and
they were given five per cent
higher this year compared to
last.
The judges base their eval-
uation on eight criteria in six
sections. Among others, the
judges noted the following:
• For the first section,
tidiness, the judges
observed that the commu-
nity had very little litter is
both urban and rural areas.
They also noticed that
unkempt yards were mini-
mal and hardly noticeable.
They recommended that
more garbage and recycling
containers be made
available.
• They were impressed
with the environmental
action happening through-
out the municipality. The
Ginn farm, Windmill Lake
Wake and Eco Park, Hullett
Wildlife Area and Hullett
School were highlighted.
• The CNR School on
Wheels and the Kildonan
House, where the judges
stayed, showcased the
unique heritage of the area.
• Central Huron demon-
strated excellent tree and
forestry management, with
special noting of reforesta-
tion efforts evident at parks,
Hullett school and Wind-
mill Lake.
The arboretum at
Woodlands golf course
impressed the judges
because of the diversity of
trees and shrubs.
• Good floral representa-
tion in parks, rural and
business areas.
A special mention was
given to Windmill Lake
Wake and Eco Park. In the
judges' evaluation they said
the energy and eco aware-
ness of the owners was
"inspiring':
In the evaluation the
judges said, "Central Huron
is blessed with many assets.
From our perspective, the
citizens of Central Huron
are its greatest."
