Attention Downtown Merchants- Flowerbox Competition

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

I would like to announce the first annual GoodMorningGloucester Downtown Merchants Flowerbox Competition.

I will be coming by to take pictures between Friday and Sunday of any flowerbox displays I see on display on Main Street to be shown on GoodMorningGloucester where we will have a poll which our readers can vote for their favorite display.

If you have a flowerbox, make sure its designed the way you would like. If you haven’t got flowerboxes in front of your store, get with the program. You have til this weekend.

Most of the pictures will be taken by Friday so if you put out some flowerboxes after that and would like me to take a picture by Sunday leave a note here or get in touch with Janice Lufkin Shea at The Cormorant Shop and she will let me know to come get a pic of your joint.

The poll will be set up on Monday with the pictures for our readers to vote.

If you have any questions leave a comment in the comment box below this post.
