Convention Plant Sale Help Needed!

 

Dave Hammond needs help with plant clean up, plant loading and unloading.  He needs help on April 18th cleaning, fertilizing, and tagging the rhododendron/pots at Dave’s.  April 25th is the day to load up the plants in the delivery truck.  April 29th (early morning) we will unload the plants at the hotel.  Dave also needs helpers to sell the plants during the convention.  He will have a signup sheet at the March meeting.  If you help with the convention, you will learn a lot, make new friends, and have a great time!

 

Nominations Time

 

It is that time of year again.  We need volunteers to serve on the nominations committee.  Two board member terms will end this year, i.e. Dave Hammond and   Shirley Rock.  The committee will be formed at the March meeting.

 

Plant Sale at Discovery Gardens

 

We need volunteers to help at the May 9th (Saturday) plant sale at the Discovery Gardens, Mt. Vernon.  Jerry Rock will have a signup sheet at the March meeting.  This is the chapter’s main fund raiser.  It’s a lot of fun too!

 

The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today!
