Bronze Medal Recipients
| The Bronze Medal is the highest award that the American Rose Society authorizes for Outstanding Service to a Local Rose Society. The Award may only be granted once to an individual or team. The award may not be given for one particular activity, but rather for a span of service over a number of years. The Award may be given to a husband and wife team if the circumstances warrant. |

| At the District Convention Banquet on Saturday night, April 15th, Bob Martin, Jr. District Director, announced that the Stagecoach Inn Rose Garden, managed by Sue Rosecrans and Kathy Ayers, had been awarded the Pacific Southwest District Director Award for Excellence in Public Rose Gardens for 2006. Previous winners include the A.C Postal Garden in Santa Barbara, and the Mesa Community College Rose Garden in Arizona. The Stagecoach Inn Rose Garden was designed by Jeri Jennings in 1994 and has been maintained by the Ventura County Rose Society and the Conejo Valley Historical Society over the past decade. The garden contains over 50 rose bushes of types in existence prior to 1910; all of the roses are representative of roses available in the Ventura County area in the last quarter of the 19th century and the first decade of the 20th century. As the garden has matured, it is breath-takingly beautiful in the Spring and tends to bloom almost twelve months of the year. It is the one of the prime educational and community outreach functions of the Ventura County Rose Society. This award also honors the dedicated volunteers who show up for maintenance and garden tasks on the last Saturday of every month but December. |
