The
Ontonagon Flower
Committee Gets Busy |
|
Ima Lerner Reporting
Early Saturday morning, May 30th, Betty Porter and Sheila
Razmus gathered their volunteers to plant flowers into the
urns which are placed up and down main street of
Ontonagon. After coming up with a color scheme, Sheila and
Betty had the task of purchasing the flowers and
delivering them to the Ontonagon Village garage. They also
needed mulch, soil and fertilizer. After the urns were
filled with soil the planting began. The volunteers for
this project were Linda Graham and Arvo Toolanen. After
the urns, came the planting of annuals in the garden by
the Holiday Gas Station. |

The weather did not cooperate as
it became rather cool with winds from the north-west.
Volunteers at the garden included Arvo Toolanen, Sheila
Razmus, Linda Graham, Betty and Bill Porter, and Carol
Harry. Betty and Sheila met several times prior to
planting the garden to come up with ideas for a color
scheme and what plants will work for the best show of
color for the summer season. There is always work to be
done on the flowers downtown. Volunteers are
welcome......just contact Betty or Sheila.
