July Meeting, Tuesday July 9th, 7:00 at Britannia 55+

 Greetings, gardeners!


Our July GGC meeting is Tuesday, July
9th at 7:00 p.m. in the 55+ room at Britannia Centre (1600 block of Napier Street on the Brit campus).

(We have actually managed to secure that room for 7:00 on the second Tuesday of each month for the remainder of the year. We won’t have a meeting in August, but you’re probably safe putting all the rest of those dates in your calendar/diary. )

The program for tomorrow’s meeting will be a review of all the gardens on last month's East Van Garden Tour. If you weren't able to take the tour, this is an opportunity to see what you missed. If you braved the rain and enjoyed the gardens, you'll be able to relive the experience while staying dry!
We are hoping that at least some of the gardeners whose gardens were featured on the tour will be there to answer any questions you might not have had a chance to ask at the time.


  • Non-members are welcome to drop in for $4. Invite your friends!
  • Please bring your own tea cup and, if you like, something that is looking lovely in your garden this month.
  • There will be door prizes!
See you at Britannia on Tuesday, July 9th!

This is also the last meeting that Christine will chair. We are still looking for someone to take over this role in September. (There is no August meeting.) It's not a difficult job and if you are willing to take it on for the next 12 months, Christine would be happy to talk to you. Alternatively, if you'd like to nominate someone else, please contact them to get their agreement, and refer them to Christine. Christine's email is christineallen88@gmail.com.

Havi Parker-Sutton is going to take over my job, doing the communications for the club! Thank you, Havi. It’s a fun job but I’ve been doing it for ten years and it’s time for me to bow out.

Cheers,
Penny
