Shirley wants to thank EVERYONE who volunteered to help make the 2008 Master Gardener Conference the great success it was. It could not have been accomplished without your many volunteer hours. Mother Nature even cooperated and gave us perfect weather. From the facilities to the guest speakers, everything was perfect.
Remember the plant sale October 16, 17 and 18. Charlie will be giving information regarding times volunteers are needed.
Cathie Rod has agreed to become the Corresponding Secretary for the BCMGVA. She will be sending cards to MG members who are ill or have had a death in the immediate family. Let me or Charlie know such information and we will pass this on to Cathie. I also want to thank Peggy Meinzer for fulfilling this duty in the past.
If you are interested in serving as a BCMGVA officer, contact a member of the nominating committee. They are Dominique Loewenstein, Joe Loughlin or Cathie Rod.
I hope everyone is ready for fall gardening. Now is the time to plant those shrubs you have wanted. Remember the plant sale is a great spot to do some shopping.
See you at the October membership meeting. There may be something different at this meeting so plan on attending.
