Recognition wanted for flower pots

The edition of the Transcript-Bulletin from May 20 had about 30 pages of advertisements, four pages of sports, a few items of interest on the front page, the deaths and missionary news -- but nowhere did I find mention of the 13 Master Gardeners who planted the big pots on Main Street with flowers. Not even a tiny picture or a thank you, even though the paper was notified of the volunteer project. Under auspices of the local AARP organization, and paid for by Tooele City, volunteers engineered the project, shopped for the plants, replaced the dirt with proper soil material, and gave their time on the weekend to beautify our downtown area. Great job gardeners, and thank you to the Tooele City Parks Department for your help. It looks so great. Now if we can just train the citizens that the garbage goes in the garbage cans and not the flower pots.
