I am the publicity chairman for the May Day event sponsored by the Garden Club of Old Annapolis Towne. I’ve enclosed information about the upcoming May Day. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Please run the following announcement before May 1.

The 67th annual May basket competition, sponsored by the Garden Club of Old Annapolis Towne, will be held Sunday, May 1 in celebration of May Day. Residents and merchants in the Historic District, and parts of Murray Hill, are encouraged to arrange baskets of fresh cut flowers to display outside their homes and businesses. Residential arrangements must be in baskets and include a card indicating the name of the participant; merchants can use a container that reflects an element of their business. Children are encouraged to make baskets and are judged in a special category. Please attach a card with the child’s name and age to their basket. All displays must be out by 11:00 a.m. on May 1 for judging by garden club members. Adult blue ribbon winners will receive an invitation to a special May Day tea on Tuesday, May 3.

This is a rain or shine event. For more information, please email Cindy Hartman at [email protected]

Please confirm receipt and let me know if you have any questions or need to make any changes. We appreciate your help in publicizing this annual event.

Thank you,

Cindy Hartman
