Kinistino looking to win second national Communities in Bloom competition

“(The judges) might not be able to get an inside look at it because it’s still being constructed, but that’s a major, major undertaking for the town.”

Judges will be in town on July 22. This is the first time Kinistino has taken part in the competition since 2019 as they didn’t participate over the past two years because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bragg is hoping these judges have the same reaction as many do when they pass through the community.

“There are times we’ve been out weeding or whatever and people stop by and they’re like this place is actually quite nice.”

She added a nearby community has also reached out asking for tips to improve their image.

While the three-member local CiB team deserves most of the credit, Bragg explained the town’s council also plays a big part.

“If we need money, they’re usually there to help us get everything looking beautiful.”

Meanwhile, Melfort is also taking part in CiB’s competition.

The community is looking to win its first national title which would put them into the Class of Champions category and then the international competition.
