Garden Club Fall Fair Display

Our group entry received a blue ribbon this year. Many visitors to our display signed up to receive more information about the Club. We look forward to meeting many of these people at our next regular meeting on Thursday, January 9, 2025 in the Cedar Room at Echo Centre. Meetings start at 7:00 p.m.

Many thanks to the members who put the display together and also to those members who contributed fruits, vegetables, and flowers to our display. Also many thanks to our head organizer, Gerrie Pavan, for adding whimsical items to the display as suggested by the the Fair’s theme of Growing Fun for Everyone!
