CFGC Awards Program
​​
CFGC wishes to recognize all of the excellent work done in Colorado by individuals, clubs, and districts. The awards are geared to identify the work done by our members and to align with the National Garden Clubs, Inc. awards program.
​
Your project may be eligible for a Rocky Mountain Regional Award or a National Garden Club award as well. If so, please contact the State Awards Chairman for the appropriate application form or more information.
“Recognition creates pride and encourages members to further their efforts”
