Lompoc Valley Flower Festival
The Lompoc Valley Flower Festival is an annual event held in Lompoc, California. It is organized and coordinated by The Lompoc Valley Festival Association and is held at Ryon Memorial Park for five days before and during the last full weekend in June. The Flower Festival started in 1952 and is named after the flower fields that used to be plentiful around the city.〔(【引用サイトリンク】The Lompoc Valley Festival Associations Story )〕 The festival features a carnival, live entertainment, food, arts and crafts, and a commercial center. The event includes the crowning of a Flower Festival Queen and goes from Wednesday to Sunday and culminates into the Flower Festival Parade on Saturday morning.
==History==
The Lompoc Valley Flower Festival was established in 1952 not as a flower festival, but as an annual rodeo and parade. The original event grew until one of Lompoc's leading citizens at the time, George Miller, began championing for the Flower Festival. Miller persuaded Lompoc's Chamber of Commerce to change from the rodeo and parade event, reasoning "that while more than 200 California communities staged rodeos each year, large and small, Lompoc had its world famous flower fields, an asset that was unique and the perfect basis for the community event". The festival was developed around The Alpha Clubs Flower Show, which had previously been going since 1922. It started out as a 2 day event, but has grown over the years to a 5 day event. Nowadays, the biggest part of the festival is the parade.〔(【引用サイトリンク】The Lompoc Valley Festival Associations Story )〕
