VERSAILLES — Though weather was again a bit of a determining factor to the volume of flower specimens displayed at the Poultry Days Flower Show, there were reportedly “some beautiful entries.”

This year’s main theme for Poultry Days was honoring the American Farmer, so the Versailles Garden Club kept this as the theme for the Artistic Arrangements class – “American Farmer.” There were four classes, one of which set for novice entries for people who have never won a first-place arrangement placing at any previous Poultry Days show.

This year’s judge was Micki Marquis, Garden Clubs of Ohio, past president.
