Vote for Whiting’s City Flower

Wednesday, September 30, 2009

This year Whiting Park celebrates it 100th Birthday and what do you buy for a park? If you are Arts Alive! you buy $3,000 worth of new plants, shrubs and flowers! But for the rest of the citizens there is another option. Select a perennial flower to represent the City of Whiting. Eleven different flowers have been selected to appear on the ballot along with a line for a Write-In of your choice. The voting began at the last Symphony of the year on September 6th and will continue through December 31, 2009. The winner of the contest will be announced at the Twelfth Night Ceremony on January 6, 2010. Show your pride in your city and park and vote for the flower that you think would best represent our fair city. One hundred of the winning flower will be planted in Whiting Park in 2010! It will be the gift that keeps on blooming! For more information, you may call the Chamber at (219) 659-2092. Forms are available at the Whiting Community Center, Whiting Robertsdale Chamber of Commerce and Whiting City Hall.
