Comer Honored As GJ ‘Yard of the Month’

SUNSET DRIVE YARD HONORED  IN MONTHLY SHOWCASE

The yard of Sharon Comer of Sunset Drive in Grand Junction has been selected as “Yard of the Month” by the Grand Junction Horizons.

Yard of the Month is selected from a list of semifinalists each month that meet the criteria for the honor—proportionality and balance among ornamentals, shrubs, flowers and trees; perspective from various angles and frontage streets; not overly done or too “busy” looking; general upkeep and ongoing improvement; and overall aesthetic.

“The Comer property helps beautify the Sunset Drive neighborhood and makes for a great entryway into Grand Junction from the south on Highway 144 and for travelers along the Lincoln Highway as it comes into Grand Junction from the west and then heads north toward Main Street,” said a Grand Junction Horizons spokesperson. “This is truly an outstanding yard.”

The Yard of the Month sign created by students at East Greene High School art classes is on display at the Comer home throughout the month of September.
