Details regarding the April Luncheon Fundraiser were discussed. The luncheon will be on Thursday, April 6, at the Vanity Fair Golf and Tennis Club. Members will decorate the tables in a general Spring theme. The speaker for the luncheon will be Katie Lamar Jackson. Ms. Jackson is a freelance writer, editor and photographer. She is the author or co-author of three national gardening books and writes the monthly gardening column for Alabama Living Magazine. Tickets for the luncheon will be $20.00
For the benefit of new members, there was a review of other projects sponsored by the garden club: The Katherine Lee Rose Garden, shrub roses in the front and back of the new courthouse, containers around the square and in front of city hall, and hanging baskets. Recently the garden club also agreed to help with the landscaping around the library. It had been planned to remove the Asiatic Jasmine and replace with gardenia shrubs but it was instead decided to leave the jasmine and try to do a better job of grooming it each Spring with the club planting the box under the library sign and the containers on the porch. A sign up sheet was passed around for members to choose a project that they would like to help with.
Following the business session, members were treated to a "lunch pail" filled with a Chicken Salad Croissant a Pimento Cheese Sandwich Pocket, a Fruit Salad Cup, Chips, a Brownie and water. Members in attendance were Laura Bodiford, Judi Burns, Bev Colquett, Brenda Gardner, Pam Hindman, Carolyn Hutcherson, Dana Shinholster, Ree Smith, Patsy Wadlington, Nancy Ziebach, Jean Singleton, Sharon Brewton, Jeanne Sewell, Robin Rawls, and one guest, Holly Tennimon.
Hey, it looks like a grand event. Gratitude for sharing these photos. We are also going to host a fund raising event for some needy people and currently have been seeking suggestions for suitable Venues in San Francisco within our budget. I wonder if you have any suggestions.
