Hello again Garden Club members! So, as it turns out, I did forget to mention a couple things…
1. SILENT AUCTION:
If you were at the February meeting, you might remember that when we asked what our club could donate to the silent auction for the Clackamas District Spring Luncheon on April 2nd, Katherene Kerner generously offered a beautiful floral lap quilt that she made! (Thank you so much Katherene!)
Anyway, I was thinking about that beautiful lap quilt, and came up with an idea… maybe our club could put together a “Relaxation” themed auction basket, centered around Katherene’s gorgeous lap quilt! I asked Katherene and she agreed that it might be a fun idea too! I would be happy to put the basket together, if a few of you wouldn’t mind donating some items to put in the basket…. what do you think?
So…..If you would like to contribute to the auction basket with a little something, please let me know, so we don’t have duplicates. Items might be a gardening magazine, a novel, a box of special tea or hot chocolate, a box of cookies, a plant catalog, a gardening diary, hand cream, a gardening puzzle, or a spring candle…. that kind of thing. You might have some other great ideas! It just needs to follow that Relaxation theme.
If you would like to contribute a little something to our basket, you could bring your item to our meeting on Tuesday or I can pick it up from you sometime in the next couple of weeks….

2. SALES TABLE:
Also, if you have anything you would like to donate to the Spring Luncheon sales table, please bring those donations to our meeting this Tuesday, or to the luncheon on April 2nd if you are attending. These sale items can be just about anything that is in decent condition that you just don’t need anymore, and it doesn’t have to be garden related. It can be a lovely vase you don’t use anymore, a pile of fabric you won’t be using, garden tools you don’t need, a pile of gently used novels you are done with, a very nice Santa decoration you don’t want anymore, whatever! Every year members find treasures at the sales table! There’s all kinds of goodies!
I hope you’re planning to attend! It will be so much more fun if you are there!
Enjoy your Sunday! See you soon! Wendy
