On July 25, 2018 two judges from Communities in Bloom toured Swan River. The judges were Roswitha Nowak who is with the West Kildonan Horticultural Society and Tanya Wiebe who is the Youth Coordinator tor Take Pride Winnipeg. On the way to Swan River, they also judged Minnedosa and Birtle.

On touring the various sites in town, they were very enthusiastic with many of the projects namely the landfill and recycling, the arboretum, the new trades building/UCN, museum, legion and general green spaces and community involvement.

Phyl Friesen was the driver and many of the committee members joined along and also enjoyed fellowship over lunch at the Pizza Place. Final results for this Manitoba competition will not be available until September.
