Important Events You Don’t Want to Miss
Hello! I would like to begin by giving a special thanks to LCIS rep Brian Arnold for a great and engaging presentation given this last March 28. Thanks to Ewing for allowing us to use their meeting room and for providing food for those who attended. These are the type of events that members should take advantage of to gain as much information as possible on issues concerning their businesses.
In staying with the spirit of learning to improve your business, our next event is April 11, a Zoom presentation by Sal Hernandez on “How to make the most profit from your award-winning projects.” Whether you are able to make that presentation or not you should still send in your entry applications as soon as possible. We are accepting entries for the Landscape Awards Competition from San Fernando Valley, Channel Islands and LA/San Gabriel Valley chapters. If you have any questions on how to submit, please feel free to reach out to us.
Plan to attend the special presentation, “The Principles of Landscape Photography,” to be held May 2 at Ventura Coast Brewing Company: 76 S Oak St., Ventura, CA 93001, starting at 5 p.m. This is just in time to get tips on taking photos of the award-winning projects you are about to enter in the Awards Competition.
Winners of the Landscape Beautification Awards Competition will be announced at the Awards Banquet June 22 at Concessions at Encino Golf Course. We are seeking Award Sponsors for this year’s Beautification Awards, so please feel free to contact us and request a form.
We want to recognize our 2023 Awards Sponsors whose generosity helped to make last year’s Awards Program so successful. They are:
Kellogg Garden Products, LCIS, Southland Sod Farms, Green Thumb Wholesale Nursery, Brightview Tree Company, Site One Landscape Supply, Gro-Power, Devil Mountain Wholesale Nursery, Smith Pipe & Supply, Performance Nursery, Pacific Equipment, Landscape Warehouse, Vineland Growers, Green Industry Co-op, Arborjet/Ecologel, Ewing Outdoor Supply, SK Landscape Design, MSM Landscape Services, Channel Islands CLCA.
We look forward to your participation once again. Thank you all!
