ROSE SHOW RESULTS

Our June show was small but still had a nice display of roses. Once again we held it on
the Bidwell Campus. Our total entries were just 214. We had 21 great arrangements
for the public to vote on, which included 6 novice arrangements by the Bidwell
Students. Dick and Evelyn Oberlander almost swept the Court. Their Moonstone
made a very nice Queen, their Dublin was a very worthy Princess, and their
Crystalline came in as Prince. Larry Grundler managed to sneak in his Uncle Joe as
the King.

In the miniatures, John Consigliero’s Hilde was a lovely Queen and Dolores
Howley’s Glowing Amber was a fitting King. Soroptomist International entered by
Georgie Papale made a very nice Princess and Dorothy Zenkevich rounded out the
Court with Pierrine as Prince.
