Merci!
Gracias! Thanks!
What a wide variety of items retailers
and members donated for our auction! Thanks to them,
and to all who contributed to our auction fun! Auctioneer
Pat Tosie skillfully urged bids higher. Many members
helped it run smoothly. And, of course, purchasers were
indispensible. We raised over $1400 for the wonderful
water lily display in front of the Jewel Box at Forest
Park. |

Pond-O-Rama
What beautiful gardens and water features were on
our 10th annual Pond-O-Rama tour this year! Visitors
commented on how friendly the hosts and hostesses
were and on the wonderful variety of ponds and waterfalls.
They, in turn, spoke of how lovely the visitors were.
Thanks to all of you!
