LO members in Amazing Bed Race

DenBok Landscaping and Design and Green Thumb Landscaping, both LO members located in Burlington, each entered a five-person team in the Amazing Bed Race in support of Joseph Brant Memorial Hospital Foundation and The Rotary Club of Burlington North. Although neither team was declared the race champion, the real winners were the recipients of incredible $81,400 raised from the event. Watch for the November edition of Horticulture Review for the complete story. For information on the bed race, visit Amazing Bed Race.
