Chamber unveils its plans for
flower baskets on streetlamps
Geibel has announced that the
chamber will install hanging flor-
al baskets on the light standards
in downtown Shelton.
It'll be a flowery summer in
Shelton this year.
ShelteR-Mason County Cham-
ber of Commerce President Jeff
MARY GARDNER, chair for the chamber's hanging
baskets project, sketched the general effect.
"The Olde Towne ShelteR Asso-
ciation has pledged money for the
baskets downtown," Geibel said.
He's expecting other parts of town
to join in, he added. "We're also
offering the baskets to places in
the county," Geibel said.
The hanging baskets filled
with colorful flowers soon will be
installed on light and utility poles
along Railroad Avenue, thanks to
the cooperative efforts of the
chamber and the city of Shelton.
The chamber's board of direc-
tors recently decided to move
ahead with the hanging baskets
project and is now soliciting funds
from downtown merchants to pay
tbr them, Shelter Mayor Scott
Hilburn announced at last week's
city commission workshop.
The chamber will pay the city
$125 per pole to maintain the
baskets throughout the summer
tourist season, Hilburn said.
Two 18-inch moss baskets will
be attached to each of 21 poles
along Railroad Avenue from First
to Eighth streets. Mary Gardner,
chairperson of the chamber's
hanging basket committee, said
the baskets and flowers will ar-
rive the week of June 1. Once the
baskets are hung, they will stay
up until the end of September.
"The program really got off the
ground when the city of ShelteR
agreed to maintain the hanging
baskets," she said. "The chamber
will pay the city for the main-
tenance."
Railroad Avenue in downtown
ShelteR is the first area to spring
for the decorative baskets. The
Olde Towne Shelton Association
made a pledge to collect money
from its members to pay for the
42 baskets, according to Ryan Da-
vis, president of the association.
The hanging brackets that will
be attached to the poles are de-
signed from the historical theme
used along the Railroad Avenue
Improvement Project. The brack-
ets will be made at the Washing-
ton Corrections Center and will
be installed prior to June 1,
Gardner said.
And, while Railroad Avenue
will be the first area to feature
the hanging baskets, the chamber
is offering the program to mer-
chants by area in other parts of
the city and county, said Geibel.
Those merchants interested in
the offer may call the chamber of-
fice at 426-2021.
