Westfield in Bloom steps it up for 2010

The Westfield In Bloom Committee met for the first time last week to discuss details for this year’s Westfield In Bloom Program.  Because the program was such a success last year, the committee decided to expand the criteria of the program and hopefully receive even more community involvement.

Westfield in Bloom is the City of Westfield’s community beautification program and is modeled after America in Bloom, a program dedicated to promoting nationwide beautification programs with community involvement through the use of flowers, plants and trees, and other environments and lifestyle enhancements.  This year, in addition to focusing on building community pride through beautifying Westfield, the committee intends to work on two other initiatives; Heritage - raising awareness of historical preservation and restoration efforts, and Community – which includes extreme attention to the details which make Westfield special.  

The Committee is seeking community volunteers to get involved and join Westfield In Bloom.  “We are hoping to raise awareness while transforming Westfield” says Melody Jones, the City’s Parks Director.  If you are interested in joining the committee, please contact the Parks Department at 317-804-3184.
