The program runs annually from the first full week in May to the last full week in September. Yards will be selected each week from nominations received. To nominate a yard for Yard of the Week:
You can call the City Hall (942-5501) or Chamber of Commerce (942-2411);
Write a letter to the City or Chamber of Commerce;
Personally visit the City Hall or Chamber of Commerce and submit your nomination;
Email your nomination to the City Manager (at citymanager@cottagegrove.org) or Chamber of Commerce (at ceo@cgchamber.com)
All single family residences within the City of Cottage Grove are eligible for the program. To encourage more participation and recognize more homes within the community, all recipients of the Yard of the Week must wait two years before receiving the award again.
