No more spring Flower Show

http://www.thebostonchannel.com/news...44/detail.html

VERY disappointed in this and I'm sure my mum is also. I did the signs for this for many years all by myself, and when I was a teenager I won numerous blue ribbons and several best of shows.

My mum is a past pres of the Garden club Fed of Ma I think about 5 terms and she's won so many awards in there you couldnt even count them at this point.

Wow that was an annual spring trip that we all looked forward to. Very disappointed.

Wow that is a long tradition. I haven't been in years but always enjoyed seeing flowers that time of the year. Too bad

Goes to show that it can run 137 years and a couple of screw ups kill the whole damn thing. Same thing is going on with big biz. Screw ups are all over the place running them into the ground.
