www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Friday, July 4, 2014 | 4 Oakville garden voted favourite in Halton Blooms contest Three Halton gardeners are in blooming good company. A pair of local gardens were awarded top honours in the Oakville Beaver, Burlington Post and Milton Canadian Champion's Halton Blooms photo contest. Of the 25 contest entries received on the Metroland West Media Group's Halton Photography Facebook page, Bozena Jaroszynski's Oakville garden was voted the favourite among social media users with 132 votes. Earning a second-place finish in the online contest was Del Templin, whose photo of her Burlington property garnered 113 votes, while a photo submitted by Jaroszynski's husband, Greg, finished third with 107 votes. For their achievements, these green thumbs were awarded gift certificates to Connon Nurseries. Jaroszynski and her husband were presented with $100 and $50 gift certificates, respectively. Templin received a $75 voucher, redeemable at the Waterdown, Ont. garden centre. In June, Halton's community newspapers encouraged residents to submit photos of their front or rear garden for a chance to win prizes. After the submission deadline, Facebook users had the opportunity to view all the entries and vote for their favourite. The contest closed June 20.
