Shortly after the new year, America in Bloom redesigned its website with new features and easier navigation. Included in the new features are expanded resources with links about grants/funding, the economic benefits of plants, and youth gardening; a spotlight feature to showcase communities registered for this year's contest; and an archive of past e-newsletter editions.
In addition to the website redesign, America in Bloom will sponsor a webinar, "Jump Start Your Town's Urban Renewal," at 1 p.m. EST on Feb. 4 — less than a month before registration closes. This 45-minute free webinar will help attendees understand how participation in AIB can benefit their community. It will be hosted by Evelyn Alemanni and Jack Clasen, veteran AIB judges. Click here [1] for details on the webinar, including webinar basics for beginners and a link to registration.
