1 CREATE THE MAGIC America in Bloom Symposium & Awards Program September 19-21, 2013 Orlando, Florida
2 Welcome
3 Welcome to Orlando and Orange County Florida! Located in the heart of Florida, Orange County and Orlando are internationally known for their extraordinary theme parks. From Disney to Universal to Sea World, the area attracts more than 50 million visitors a year. Although tourism has been part of the history of central Florida since the late 19th century, small rural towns built around agriculture truly characterized this region until the dramatic growth of the late 20th century. The America in Bloom Symposium & Awards Program offers a unique opportunity to gain insight into this remarkable region and meet some extraordinary people who are making a difference in their communities. We will visit AIB City Winter Garden, the charming little city with a juicy past. We will have an early morning before-the-park-opens tour of Epcot s World Showcase. We will visit Leu Gardens, one of the truly great urban botanic gardens. Thanks to a wonderful partnership with the Florida Nursery Growers & Landscape Association (FNGLA), we will experience The Landscape Show, one of the largest and most impressive horticultural trade shows in the country. With each of these experiences, we will find numerous best ideas for our own communities. Most importantly, we will have the opportunity to meet some exceptional speakers and community leaders. If you have never been to Central Florida, you will want to extend your stay to visit the theme parks. However, you will not want to miss a single moment of what we have planned for you as together we Create the Magic with America in Bloom! Welcome to the 12th Annual America in Bloom Symposium & Awards Program! Orlando AIB Committee: Linda Adams, Robert Bowden, Billy Butterfield, Kay Cappleman, Tanja Gerhartz, Keri Leymaster, Diane Rinkes, Timothee Sallin, Katy Moss Warner, Janet Wyatt, and Mary Zahl.

Join the Walt Disney World Horticulture cast as they share their experience in planning the gardens of World Showcase including bedding plants, hanging baskets, and containers. They will describe how these garden elements highlight the differences between countries and really bring the stories of international cultures to life. Trees, perennial gardens, permanent plantings, graphics, lighting, and site furnishings in guest areas play a critical role in unifying the experience and delivering the overall impression. Disney landscape architects will discuss some recent projects and how their design process includes storytelling as a means to create beauty and magic. This tour will enhance your understanding of the features that define a welcoming space and will offer many ideas to take home to your own community. Buses will return to the Rosen Plaza Hotel at 11 a.m.
6 12 p.m. Lunch with Keynote Speaker Peter Kageyama, author of For the Love of Cities When we love a city, we are committed to it, we engage with it, we care for it, we give our best to it. A city that is loved also gives back. It makes those who live there feel enriched. These words are from author, consultant, and community champion Peter Kageyama. He will share his experiences identifying love notes that a city offers its citizens to create passionate involvement. Peter will share what it means to have a relationship with a place, why it matters, how such a relationship grows, how it can die, and how to better understand it. 1:30 p.m. Concurrent Sessions The Great Water Challenge Transforming Water Problems into Places of Beauty Dr. Marty Wanielista, Professional Engineer, University of Central Florida Flooding, storm water runoff, and pollution of our waterways are problems for many towns and cities. There are cost effective, sustainable, and beautiful solutions to these problems. Bio-gardens and roof gardens are concepts taking root to intentionally provide space with trees and plants for storm water retention so as to reduce flooding and pollution. Craving Local How Locally-Grown Food is Revitalizing Communities John Rife, Founder of the Winter Park Harvest Festival and Owner of East End Market, Orlando Powerful memories are created when we grow and eat locally distinct and seasonally available foods. The journey from local garden to local plate establishes an important sense of place and a critical sense of community. 2:30 p.m. Concurrent Sessions The Economic Impact of Beautification in Cities Dr. Charlie Hall, Texas A & M University There is now significant data to demonstrate the economic, environmental, social, and health benefits of flowers, shrubs, and trees. This session will provide thought-provoking evidence of the power of plants and quality landscapes and why they are necessities not mere luxuries in our lives. Out on a Limb Innovative Strategies for Ensuring a Healthy Urban Forest Edith Makra, Metropolitan Mayors Caucus, Chicago Trees are critically important to the quality of life in our towns and cities. From small towns in Massachusetts to large cities like Chicago, Edith Makra has seen how trees and the people who care about them make communities better.

We will be visiting World Showcase, an ongoing World s Fair of 11 pavilions that encircles a picturesque 40-acre lagoon. The cuisine, culture, history, gardens, and architecture of these countries are permanently displayed along a 1.2-mile promenade. Pavilions replicate familiar landmarks and present representative street scenes and urban plazas from the host countries. Lovely gardens many of them tucked away off the beaten track are incorporated into this busy urban environment. Some of the most creative and dramatic hanging baskets and containers are displayed in the gardens of World Showcase. Mayor s Breakfast Reception Prior to the start of the AIB Symposium, mayors from across the country can come together to network and discover important information about the horticulture industry and its critical link to communities.
