The Otley in Bloom Calendar
In 2007 the Otley in Bloom group branched out into the design and distribution of a pictorial 2008 calendar. These were sold at outlets across Otley and the proceeds have been earmarked for the continuing Gateways Project.
Members of our group contributed photos from around the town and surrounding area. These pictures were at different times of the year and showed the changing seasons. Otley is a beautiful town and we're fortunate to have so many attractive views to enjoy.
We had a dedicated team of people who followed the project through from start to finish. This involved many stages and has been a great learning experience for us.
It has seemed that the calendar has been very popular both to residents and visitors to the town and that they now have it hanging it their home - providing a persistent reminder about Otley in Bloom and the work that it tackles.

Erratum:

A great deal of care was put into the accuracy of the events which are shown on the calendar. However since the printing started on the Calendar we decided to change the date and time of our monthly meetings. Otley in Bloom meetings are now going to be held on the FIRST Tuesday of every month at 7:00 pm in the Otley Courthouse. Everyone welcome.
