Schedule

The Schedule Committee works with the GCV Flower Shows Chairman and the GCV Daffodil, Lily or Rose Chairman to develop the show Schedule for approval one year prior to the show.  The show Schedule includes an Artistic Schedule with suggested styles for each class, and a Horticulture Schedule which adheres to nationally sanctioned specifications.  Prior to printing, the GCV Flower Shows Chairman must approve the Artistic Schedule and the GCV Daffodil, Lily or Rose Chairman must approve the Horticulture Schedule. Once approved, the Schedule becomes the “Law of the Show”.

The Schedule Chairman must be an experienced exhibitor. She and her committee work closely with the Host Club Show Co-Chairmen, Staging, Properties and Printing Chairmen. 

Guidelines

  1. Include introduction remarks of a theme at the beginning of the artistic division. Minimize words to minimize cost of printing.
  2. Be specific, concise, and clear.
  3. Review the inventory list for available staging properties.
  4. Consider the show theme as well as design styles as they relate to show space, ceiling height and available staging materials. Print design styles in bold typeface.
  5. Present the Schedule for approval by the GCV Flower Shows Chairman and the GCV Daffodil, Lily or Rose Chairman at the same time the Staging Committee floor plan is presented.  
  6. Detailed instructions regarding design and expectations limits creativity in Artistic Classes.  Include specific staging details regarding space and properties.  
  7. State exactly what may or may not be used in each class in such a manner to minimize misinterpretation.

    • Number of sides from which the design will be viewed
