I would like to thank everyone who gave of their time and provided great ideas to ensure the success of the Landscape Ontario 40th anniversary.  

A special thanks should go to

• Those who gathered, sorted and mounted all the old pictures for the LO booth and the Walk of Fame. This was a daunting and time consuming task, but well worth the effort.
• The magazine staff did a great job of ensuring the members were aware of our association’s milestones.
• The Congress staff and committee members brought awareness of all the festivities to the exhibitors.
• Tony DiGiovanni and his staff created the member video that not only reviewed where we come from, but looks to the next 10 years and the great things to come with Landscape Ontario.  

We should be proud to be one of the largest horticulture associations in North America and look forward to being one of the largest in the world by the 50th anniversary.   

On behalf of all the members, congratulations Landscape Ontario on 40 amazing years! Let’s make the next ten just as prosperous!

Regards, Monica van Maris,
chair of LO’s anniversary committee
