Dear Community Leader:

Spring Fever in the Garden has a continuing success as a family oriented garden festival in Historic Downtown Winter Garden. On Saturday and Sunday, April 12 and 13, 2008, Plant Street will become a lively buzz of activity for the eighth year. The festival is a garden and art related event for all ages. KidZone is an interactive learning and fun activities center for children. There are vendors selling live flowers, trees and exotic plants. In addition, there will be an Art Auction of art by local artists and raffle tickets for sale on chances for everything from golf packages to spa treatments and restaurant dinners. There also will be a Birds of Prey exhibit, Ask the Experts booth and a butterfly house. Last year the estimated attendance was 25,000.

The Festival is the major fund raising project for Bloom ‘N Grow Garden Society, designated 501(c)(3) is a group of women who are dedicated to beautifying and educating the West Orange and South Lake communities. During the last ten years they have contributed over 340,000 hours of volunteer time and generated more than $141,000 cash donations. Please see the Community Projects insert included in this material and on our website, www.springfeveringarden.com. Winter Garden is the eleventh fastest growing city in Florida with over 344,000 people living within ten miles.

We invite you to become a major participant in our endeavors to create a positive environment in our communities. Your participation will be a positive benefit for you and your organization. We look forward to your being a major Sponsor. On our website you can download a Sponsor Opportunity form and read a History of Bloom n’ Grow Garden Society.
