Each year members of the City of Mill Creek's Art and Beautification Board tour the City and make note of those residents who have put exceptional time and effort into the beautification of their property. The Great Garden Award program gives awards across the City to deserving gardeners.

Boardmembers toured the City and took pictures of noteworthy properties and selected this year's winners of the Great Garden Award.

Each winner receives a keepsake and a yard sign placed in their yard for the month of August. Winners will also be recognized by the City Council at the regular council meeting on September 14, 2010.
