PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE:

Our first event of the season was a great success with 45 guests attending to hear Jacquie Proctor , author talking about her newly published book “Bay Area Beauty: The Artistry of Harold G. Stoner, Architect” . The book covers many homes in Forest Hill and many owners of such homes attended the talk. Many thanks to Dottie McHugh for bringing Jacquie to the Garden Club.

Anna Bolechowski was hostess again this year for our annual chicken salad luncheon. We thank her committee who set up on Sunday and worked around the leak and various plumbing problems. A special thank to Michael Bolechowski who roasted the delicious chicken for our luncheon.

Beautiful flowers were done by Darlene Hartman, Nancy Hagosian, Eva Monroe, Helen Scholten, Anna Cristoforo and Dottie McHugh . Many of the arrangements used our neighborhood flower, the fuchsia as well as lovely ferns and hydrangeas from our gardens.
