There was a tie this year in the best residential property category for the City of Moose Jaw’s Beautification Awards, while three other properties received honourable mentions.
The Beautification Awards were handed out during city council’s Aug. 12 regular meeting.
The best residential property award — sponsored by Cornell Design and Landscaping and Windmill Greenhouse — went to Curtis and Kirby Campbell and Kari Nelson and Ryan Hoover.
The best residential property honourable mentions — sponsored by Keon Garden Centre, Emerald Custom Creations, and the City of Moose Jaw — went to Pat and Wayne Ingleby, Eric and Shelly Froese, and Mike and Wanda McRitchie.
These are some wonderful properties to acknowledge, said Sarah Regent, parks gardener and co-ordinator of the Beautification Awards.
“We had a really great number of nominees this year (12). All of them were really high quality entries,” she continued. “It was an absolute pleasure to judge the Beautification Awards again this year.
“Everyone did an absolutely fabulous job. … It means a lot to everyone involved. I know it does. I just really want to congratulate you all on everything you do to make our city very beautiful.”
The next regular council meeting is Monday, Aug. 26.
