visitors once again.
 
Note: AIB Past President Dr. Charlie Hall and his wife MiChal shared these comments from their August 2016 visit with Nancy Chennault. “Winning the Destination Castle Rock package at the 2015 AIB silent auction was one of the best experiences my wife and I have had in years! Not only is it a great destination in terms of its proximity to Mt. St. Helens, but Castle Rock is the epitome of what America in Bloom is all about. It is absolutely beautiful and the civic pride we experienced was contagious. We were able to meet volunteers from Castle Rock Blooms who had so much passion and enthusiasm that we became passionate and enthusiastic about Castle Rock. Oh, and did I mention the great food? We will definitely be going back to this spectacular community! Thanks Castle Rock for a great memory!'
