It was established in 1955. Wally Bronner, founder of Bronner's CHRISTmas Wonderland, was a charter member of the Frankenmuth CBC. He loved to say— No man stood taller than when he bent down to pick up a piece of trash. Wally's vision for this committee was striving for beauty in all things. His efforts, with his wife Irene and the Bronner Family Foundation, started the City Beautification Endowment fund as a way to ensure Frankenmuth can continue to bloom well into the future. Learn more about CBC and how you can contribute by visiting frankenmuthcity.com. 2 . There are 4 miles of irrigation throughout town to help keep the flowers and plants watered. This system is supplemented by a one-of-a-kind custom water truck run by hydraulic arms. 1. The spectacular flower program of Frankenmuth is made possible by the collaborative efforts of the City, Downtown Development Authority, and City Beautification Committee.
