The Society continued with strong membership at 134. We held wonderful, knowledgeable speakers each month. We participated in very successful festival events at Applefest and at Pumkinfest promoting our club. We participated in the Mum Show in Hamilton and the Bulb Show in Hamilton. We have two $500 bursaries and offered another but no takers. We looked after 7 large flower beds at Erland Lee Museum and the interior gardens at the memory section of Seasons retirement home.
