We inspect for quality and quantity. All homes with garden gnomes are required to register each gnome with our committee. The date, location, and price of purchase must be included with each submission. Four photos of different angles (front, back, left, right) are also needed for our records. If you choose to name your gnome, that needs to be noted on your application as well. If you do not name your gnome, a name will be assigned. There may not be two gnomes with the same name in the community. Some names still available are Cordelia, Guinevere, and Jazzly for female gnomes and Duke, Stretchblow, and Frankenly for males. There is a $10 processing fee for each gnome. If you have a gnome that hasn't been registered, please attend our meeting on the first Friday of the month at 8 am in the Game Room. We have a gnome "meet 'n greet" the third Saturday of the month at 6 pm in the Ballroom where you may bring your gnome(s) so they may mingle with other Four Seasons gnomes. ~ Gnome What I'm Talking About, (909) 797-3647 Garden Gnome Committee
