"The Songs of Mamma Mia"
Flower Show
October 18th and 19th, 2008 
The Fall Flower Show was held in conjunction with the Gorge Fruit and Craft show on October 18th and 19th 2008 at the Hood River County Fair grounds. The theme of the flower show was "The Songs of Mamma Mia". We had an early frost that did cause some concerns about our horticulture and bouquets that we sell for a fund raiser. We were fortunate to have an increase in our designs and horticulture. This year was our highest amount with 218 entries and our designs were up with 50. We do have pre-registration but do not turn anyone away on the day of the show. We are always encouraging more contestants to enter. (Click on photos to enlarge) Front Entries for
