Village Oaks Beautification Day

One week from today (next Friday, June 10th), a competition will begin at Village Oaks for a highly sought after prize: the Beautiful Building Award.  This competition will invite residents of Village Oaks to keep their building areas clean.  Every 3 months, buildings will be judged based upon four criteria: trash, breezeways, landscaping, and enhancement.

Buildings who receive the Beautiful Building Award will be honored as a group of people.  Winners will be given a “party pack” complete with hotdogs, chips, cookies, and drinks to be used for a building celebration.

To kick off this competition, we will be hosting the first ever Village Oaks Beautification Day.  We plan to plant flowers, pick up trash, and enhance the overall look of Village Oaks.  There are several flowerbeds around the center of the property, but we would like to install many more around buildings throughout Village Oaks.  Groups of residents living in a shared building have been invited to participate by requesting a flowerbed and helping with the planting.  Planting a flowerbed around a building will directly contribute to that building’s chances of winning a Beautiful Building Award.

If you are interested in the Village Oaks Beautification Day, we invite you to join with us as we kick off the Beautiful Building Competition.  We will be looking for donations and volunteers!  See below for a list of available opportunities:

2.     Soil (40, 40lb. bags)

3.     Flowers (75 total flats)

4.     Fertilizer (2, 12lb. bags)
