Parking in this lot may result in show disqualification. Entries are accepted 7:30 - 9:45 a.m. Trophies will be awarded at 3 p.m. in the show area. Exhibits will remain on display until 5 p.m., at which time they may be picked up by the exhibitor. Exhibits not picked up will become the property of the Santa Barbara Rose Society and donated within the community.
