Bikes in Bloom 2011 Raffle
In conjunction with Bikes in Bloom 2011, GMEAC is conducting a raffle with a grand prize of a 2008 Fuji Monterey Hybrid Bicycle.
“With its strong connection to the bike trail,” said Connie Hunter, president, GMEAC, “Bikes in Bloom 2011 is a natural extension of that theme. All of our members are looking forward to bringing this activity to greater Milford.”
The goal of Bikes in Bloom 2011 is to unite our communities through a garden art initiative. We also anticipate that the program will attract new visitors to our retail businesses, as people travel to Milford to witness the colorful and creative displays. Monies collected through the application process will cover the cost of conducting and promoting the program; and, will strengthen the ability of GMEAC to bring a variety of cultural events to our area, offer educational programs (including scholarships), and support excellence in the arts. |
