The club sold 640 tickets and had over 500 people tour the gardens. The gardens were beautiful, despite the hot weather!!!


Extended Thanks

Zone 6 Garden Club would like to extend a sincere thank you to the people, businesses and organizations that helped make our Garden Tour 2010 a success.

Thanks to Steve and Kristi Bitner, Bill and Bobbie Askew, Tim and Kristie Watson-Bell, Patrick O'Bryan and Tim Towner, Helen martin, Kala Spigarelli and Taka Kido, and Pittsburg Community Garden, Matt troth, head gardener. Pittsburg should be very proud of the effort put forth by them and we at Zone 6 give everyone a gold star.

Thanks to Pittsburg Beautiful for displaying the beautiful urns,and to the city of Pittsburg for the use of Pritchett Pavilion at Immigrant Park for our headquarters.

Special thanks to the Morning Sun, KKOW, KRPS, KOAM-TV, KODE-TV and Andra Stefanoni for excellent coverage; DEPCO for printing tickets and posters; First Christian Church ladies for the lunch served. Also, a special thanks to local businesses who advertised in our tour guide/or served as ticket outlets.

We at Zone 6 are very proud that this type of community involvement can be accomplished to show off our city. Special credit goes out to all our members for their hard work and dedication in making this tour successful. We are already planning for our 2012 Garden Tour!

Thanks to everyone for your generous and enthusiastic support
