🌸🌿 What a Day in Bloom! 🌿🌸

Yesterday was a fantastic day welcoming the Communities in Bloom judges to Elk Point! We had the pleasure of showing off our beautiful town — from our vibrant gardens and green spaces to the community pride that makes Elk Point so special.

Thank you to everyone who helps keep our community looking its best — your hard work, creativity, and dedication truly shine. 🌼🌳

Elk Point is more than just a place we live — it’s a place we love, and today we got to share that with the judges. 💛

Special thanks to Dwayne and Morris from 2nd Chance Trail Ride Society for the transportation!
Thank you to the Public Works department of the Town of Elk Point and Elk Point Municipal Library and Elk Point Community Garden and Elk Point Historical Society and Alberta's Iron Horse Trail for their fabulous presentations.

Thank you to Magic Pizza and the Elk Point Golf and Country Club for great food along the way.
