Burnham in Bloom The Burnham-in-Bloom judging team were out and about on the 24th and 25th June and with forty nine entries to this year's competition they were kept busy and the task of picking the winners for each category will be a formidable task. The judges were Melanie Lewin, Ivor Boyer and Keith Williams. Melanie commented, “in each category there is a such a variance in what we see it’s very difficult to judge, we’ve had back gardens of close to an acre and others that are really tiny but everyone had something different and unique to offer”. The categories included front and back residential gardens, containers, hanging baskets, commercial gardens, pubs, industrial gardens, clubs, schools and community open spaces. All those who entered and those interested in seeing an animated slide show of all the gardens are welcome to come to the presentation evening on the 25th July at the Town Council Offices. Burnham-in-Bloom is sponsored by Burnham-on-Crouch Town Council, The Burnham-on-Crouch & Dengie Hundred Chamber of Commerce and the Burnham & Dengie Hundred Review. Category prizes are donated by businesses in the town and at the time of writing include; The Queen’s Head, Rios Tapas Bar, Rio’s Cinema, Jacaranda, Williams Family Photographers and Marts Parts. Photography is by Williams Family Photographers. There will be a further report next month with details of all the winners. |
