Enhancing The Town
The competition is run in order to make the town look more attractive by enhancing it with all kinds of floral
decorations. It's very successful in achieving this aim. The only thing that's missing is a category for
community gardens, and adding one could be a way of taking the competition to even greater heights
next year.
