Main Street in Bloom!

The happy new hanging baskets along Main Street went up last Sunday thanks to Jerry Stranik with a little help from a friend, Frankie Kashevaroff.   The baskets were donated to the City of Seldovia by Cathy and Dee Calvin of  Forget-me-Not nursery of Indian, AK!

Suzie Stranik did the necessary permission requests and the Chamber of Commerce purchased the brackets.  Peter Elvsaas with Seldovia Expeditors brought them down the highway at no charge!  And best of all, Shad Haller has promised that the Seldovia Fire Dept will keep them watered!   Suzie hopes the loosely formed garden club will help with dead heading during the summer to keep them blooming.  A big round of thanks to all who lent a hand to make our Main Street blossom!
