Master Gardeners have a problem, and we're coming to all of you for our help. 

We have a garden project at the corner of 5 South and 62B, across from the Sheriff's office.  We have a planting there with a 'dude' standing there saying "Hi" to all who pass by him.  But he doesn't have a name!!!  So we are having a Name the Dude Contest.


Entries can be made at the Baxter County Fair, which will be held August 24 to 28 of this year.  

And yes there is a prize for the winner -- only one winner, and there will be a choice of one of the following:

One Free Registration for the Master Gardener Training Class, a $100 value
or
$100 Gift Card to Kelley Thomas Nursery
or
$100 Gift Card to Carl Wayne Nurseries
or 
$100 Gift Card to Wal Mart

.....the winner's choice of one of the four prizes!!!

So get those wheels turning, and let's 'Name the Dude'!

​Come visit us at the County Fair at the Horticulture Room in the Education Building to submit your entry.
