Thank You Volunteers

We’ve all heard the proverb
“many hands make light work.”

This was most evident during the 2024 HFJ Season. You, Our Volunteers were out in force, walking, admiring, judging and awarding the stunning HFJ ribbons of our 102nd Coronado Flower Show. Every Volunteer takes this task quite seriously and we are continuously amazed at your dedication, positive energy and pride in community. From the bottom of our hearts we thank-you. We could NOT have scattered the joy without you!

With gratitude,

Kelly Kindorf & Lori P Smith

Co-Chairs, 2024 Home Front Judging

2024 Home Front Judging Results

Top Home Front Winners—Map of Coronado

The 102nd Coronado Flower Association Home Front Judging results are in! Over one-hundred and fifty community volunteers participated in this fun-filled home-appreciation judging process. Awards were handed-out to many deserving home fronts: Blue Ribbons for First Prize, Red Ribbons for Second Prize, Yellow Ribbons for Third Prize and, this year, Green Ribbons to Earth-Friendly home fronts, those who focus on water conservation and minimal maintenance. Additional awards (noted by an asterisk) were given to Blue Ribbon winners in the over sixty-plus (60+) Judging Zones from which a Best Home Front, First Home Front Runner Up, Second Home Front Runner Up and Top Ten Winners were selected. The Coronado Cays Community competed similarly and were awarded The Best in the Cays, First Runner Up and Second Runner Up. A “blooming” good time was had by all! Thank you to the many hands that made this process possible.
