CHRISTMAS PARTY! Kathy Bruce has graciously invited us to her festively decorated home for our annual party Wednesday December 13 at 11:30 a.m.. If you want to join the Stealing Santa game, bring a present around $25 to be included. Bring a covered dish, also a plant, flowers, or wreath for someone less fortunate. These will be taken to Westminster, a low-income housing place for seniors many of whom could use something to brighten their holiday. |
NOVEMBER MONTHLY MEETING: Cindy Moran who spoke to us on Begonia culture returned to tell us about what we can plant in the fall for our spring enjoyment. Cindy brought plants that should be planted now to produce spring blooms. Thanks to hostesses Carol Borgstede, Ellen Pusey and Margaret Hardin for lovely refreshments.
ARBOR DAY: Save the date January 15 to celebrate Arbor Day!
Chairman Susan Pizani is coordinating with the Mayor's office to see where they would like a tree planted. Arbor Day is celebrated on the third Friday each January which is an optimum time to plant in Louisiana. Hope you can all help honor the environment with us! |
