Lewes in Bloom presented its 2022 American in Bloom first-place award to Lewes Mayor and City Council Dec. 12.
Lewes was awarded the top prize for towns with a population of 2,000 to 5,000 people at the 2022 America in Bloom annual symposium held Sept. 29-Oct. 1 in St. Louis, Mo.
Lewes in Bloom and city officials, residents and business owners welcomed America in Bloom judges Ed Hooker III and Evadne Giannini for an official visit in July. The judges were escorted around town to showcase the city’s natural beauty and some of its continued efforts to enhance the community.
