The Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) Op Shop Toowoomba, Australia, has received first place for their floral shop display.
The CBD Business Premises Award was presented to the ADRA Op Shop on behalf of The Chronicle and the Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce last month.
“The judges had very positive comments about our shop,” said South Queensland Conference ADRA regional manager Lisa Booth in a post on ADRA Australia’s Facebook page.
To commemorate the 75th anniversary of The Chronicle Garden Competition and Carnival of Flowers, stores had the opportunity to decorate their shopfronts in floral arrangements. Entrants were to incorporate themes of gardening, the anniversary and colour into their displays.
The ADRA Op Shop was one of 13 entrants who participated in the competition.
