The President's Message

Dear Members and Friends:

I am looking forward to working with each of you in 2008. I will be asking a Garden Club each month to participate in our meetings. We want to know about your club, its history and its contribution to your community. I am going to focus my agenda on NURTURING THE EARTH, and I challenge you to embrace your environment through efforts to this cause.

The programs for the coming year are exciting and varied, and I hope that each member will enjoy them and become more involved in our activities. On May 5 we will be celebrating Cinco de Mayo at the 'Quarry' in East Canton. This is our first fund raiser of 2008. We will take a bus trip in June to Falling Waters in Pennsylvania. Through our 8 scheduled Pergola Parties for Children, we can help connect children to nature through gardening. Our annual Tour of Gardens and Patron Party will be held in July. In September, a Style Show will be held at Shady Hollow Country Club. We will have a Holiday-themed Flower Show in October; and in November, we will host Holly Pine Lane, our gift to the Community. We continue to make flower arrangements for Meals on Wheels each month and with the patients at Heartland Behavioral Center. Both are activities to nurture shutins and help those less fortunate. Our Garden Center gardens will be planted in May, and we need lots of helping hands to plant and beautify our gardens.

These are but a few of the ways in which we can NURTURE THE EARTH. Please meet my challenge.


In closing and to begin this 'nurturing' process, please take the seeds of peace, the seeds of happiness, of joy and the seeds of love-and MAKE THESE SEEDS GROW!!

Sincerely,

Bonnie L. Popa
