To pay homage to their European homeland, Orange City residents began to imagine a celebration to honor the traditions and customs of their Dutch ancestors. The Hollander’s innate tendency toward cleanliness and beauty combined with a historical background of flower culture was the inspiration for the Tulip Festival.According to an account in the Orange City Journal of May 4, 1933, the first annual Tulip Show was sponsored by the joint efforts of the Lion’s Club, Lawn and Garden Club and the Women’s Club.
