‘Plant’ Westfield blue, welcome Colts to Grand Park

The rivalry is back on in Westfield.

Westfield residents will have a chance to show their support for the Indianapolis Colts with this year’s spring planting event.

The “Plant the City Blue” competition is a chance for residents to show their pride in the community and their homes, while also welcoming the Indianapolis Colts to their new training camp location at Grand Park this summer.

“This will be a fun competition to determine which homes, neighborhoods and apartments can show the best and bluest floral spirit,” Community Events and Engagement Director Angie Smitherman said.

This year’s floral competition is an online competition, giving residents the chance to take pictures of their arrangements and submit them online before June 22.

The competition features categories for individual homes as well as neighborhood and apartment entrances. Each category must adhere to judging criteria such as use of blue and white coloring, arrangements and originality, distribution and location of flowers, balance and harmony, and maintenance of flowerbeds, planters and window boxes.

Judging will occur the last week in June.
