DARRINGTON ANNUAL GARDEN COMPETITION PRIZE
PRESENTATION
JULY 2007
Lucky Darrington
Garden
Tony Harris, General Manager of The
Mid-Yorkshire Golf Club, generously hosted the very first presentation of the Darrington
Parish Council Garden Competition Rose Bowl at the Awards’ ceremony held at the golf
club last week.
2007 competition winner, Tony
Moorhouse of Sotheron Croft, was amazed but delighted to receive the bowl – donated
by The Mid Yorkshire Golf Club - along with an equally unexpected but very welcome
voucher for meals at the club. His front lawn, designed in the shape of a four leaf
clover, certainly brought him good luck this year!
Runners-up Mrs Ellerington, Ash
Grove, and Mr and Mrs Smith, Valley Road received vouchers also very generously donated
by Baghill Nurseries and The Spread Eagle Pub, Darrington.
Judging took place last week during
one of the few sunny gaps in the weather. Despite a more modest number of entries than
last year, the standard was very high indeed and all the gardens were a blaze of colour,
scent and wonderful design.
Competition organiser and
Parish Councillor, Andy Tagger, thanking all entrants said, “The Parish Council is
determined to nurture community involvement wherever we can. We’ve got a lovely
village and loads of very enthusiastic, talented gardeners. Our annual free-entry, fun
competition is a good excuse for people in our parish to meet and share good ideas –
and even better cuttings!”
Andy thanked Mid Yorkshire Golf
Club, Baghill Nurseries and The Spread Eagle for their continued and much appreciated
support. “We really value the generous contributions and encouragement of our
competition sponsors.”
