• The Grand Hyatt has optional free & paid activities and tours that our non-gardening guests/significant others may want to take part in during the day (or for members before or after the convention). These can be arranged through the hotel. Examples include guided nature walks, hikes, fishing trips in gold-medal streams, horseback riding, and many more!

 

Spread the word to everyone! Guests (the Public) are encouraged to attend & that includes anyone interested in gardening, even those who are not a CFGC garden club member, as well as family and friends. With the 2 days prior and after the convention, this could make a great family getaway or a nice relaxing vacation!
