Beauregard Town

Announcing the 2009 Beauregard Town Lawn & Garden Contest sponsored by WAFB!

For those who could not make the BT annual meeting last Thursday, it was announced that we will have our first neighborhood lawn and garden contest. There will be four winners who will each be presented with $100 gift certificate to a local lawn and garden center. The categories to enter are:

* Best Flower Garden
* Best Vegetable Garden
* Best Overall Yard
* Most Improved Yard

A 20% off coupon to Nature’s Treasures will be presented to everyone who enters the contest. The contest will be judged by the beautification committee members on or around April 26th. In addition to $100 gift certificates, winners will also be featured on the Beauregard Town website and mentioned at next year’s annual meeting.

Please join the contest by sending name, address, and entry category(s) to direction09@gmail.com or fill out the attached flier and deliver to 757 Maximillian Street. Entries should be submitted by Sat Feb 28th.

I would like to thank WAFB for their support of this project and Nature’s Treasures for 20% discounts for all entrants.

Thank you,

Andy Weber

PS. Also, if anyone is interested in judging the contest just send me an email. Thanks.

On February 12, 2009, the Beauregard Town Neighborhood Association officially launched the Beauregard Town website at the annual association meeting.  The vision is for a fluid site, with regularly updated news, photos, and other content.  This will allow us to showcase the many events, functions, gatherings, etc. that take place in our neighborhood.

We would like to invite everyone who shares our affection for the neighborhood to participate.  We’re interested in sharing pictures, historical information, announcements, and stories with our neighbors and with the rest of the world through this portal.

If you are interested in contributing — either one time or on an ongoing basis — please email us at contribute@beauregardtownbr.com.
