Dear Community Leader:

Celebrating the 10th Annual Spring Fever in the Garden festival on Saturday and Sunday, April 10 and 11, 2010, downtown Winter Garden will once again be transformed into a colorful landscape of unusual and exotic plants, flowers, trees and all-things-garden for sale by 100 plus Vendors. Festival attendees will have an opportunity to participate in KIDZONE, an interactive learning and fun activities center for children of all ages; a Silent Garden Art Auction by local artists; a Birds of Prey Exhibit and an Ask the Experts Booth. In addition, there will be raffle tickets for sale on prizes valued at hundreds of dollars including golf packages, spa treatments and restaurant dinners. We will continue our “Chalk It Up” sidewalk chalk art contest and new this year, “Watch Art Happen” with local artists painting what they see at Spring Fever. Last year the estimated attendance was 25,000.

The festival is the major fund raising project for Bloom & Grow Garden Society, designated a non-profit. Bloom & Grow members are dedicated to beautifying and educating the West Orange and South Lake communities in environmentally sound practices. During the last eleven years they have contributed over 500,000 hours of volunteer time and generated more than $225,000 cash donations and scholarships. Please see the Community Projects insert included in this material and on our website, www.springfeveringarden.com.

We urge you to become a sponsor of our 10th Annual Spring Fever in the Garden 2010 festival. Your support is even more critical in the current economic climate and will enable Bloom & Grow to continue to enrich the West Orange and South Lake Communities. Major sponsorship will also benefit your organization.
