​Communities in Bloom

2025 was a great summer for Communities in Bloom. The Regional Park looked amazing, the Pipestone Golf Course looked fantastic, the Hop Farm Tour was fascinating and the Town of Moosomin was beautiful. All those efforts were recognized last weekend as the National symposium and awards in Stratford Ontario. We were up for two National Awards:

• Communities in Bloom National Championship

• National Winter Life Award for winter Recreation programming

Watch next weeks paper for results. Regardless our successes this summer have made us a winner regardless of last weekend’s outcome!
