 Windermere Town Council
Windermere In Bloom Competition
Trophy Winners
Each year, the Windermere Town Council
holds a "Windermere In Bloom Competition" which is open to all
businesses, private dwellings, and Community Amenities within the Parish
of Windermere. This competition enables businesses and private
households to show off their horticultural skills, not only for their
own enjoyment, but also to make the area more enjoyable for
the holidaymaker and the locals.
The hanging baskets that are attached to
various lamp-posts throughout the village were done by Horticare of
Kendal. During 2011, a further number of the hanging baskets have been
sponsored by local businesses at the suggestion of the Windermere &
Bowness Chamber of Trade and it is hoped that this will be repeated in
2012.
This years' Award Ceremony attracted over
120 residents, business people, Councillors and other interested
contributors. Mr Steve Tatlock from the National Park gave a short
presentation on the WinderClean and Community Litterpick and outlined
the plans being prepared for the future of these events. This was
followed by Mr Leslie Johnson who gave a short address on behalf of
Cumbria In Bloom.
The Awards Ceremony took place on the 6th
September 2011 at the Hydro Hotel, Bowness.

In 2010, a new innovation has been tried in that concrete
rings have been planted up and placed at various strategic points
throughout the Parish. These have been at Troutbeck Bridge,
Ellerthwaite Square and the Railway Station. The ones at this last
venue have been sponsored by Lakeland Ltd.
The awards ceremony took place on the 14th
September at the Hydro Hotel, Bowness.
