1998 AOS Awards
Gold Medal Certificate (91POINTS)
for Display
Awarded to
CRYSTAL COURT
The AOS grants about 1800 awards a year amongst the approximately 300 shows a year that they participate in. Over the last ten years, they have only granted Three Gold Medal Awards to a Venue. We are very proud of the fact that Crystal Court just received one of those awards! The 12 foot long Lizard had graced the USPS float a few weeks prior at the Rose Bowl Parade. Mushrooms over twenty feet high and several thousand orchids were added to make an outstanding Main Display.
