General Announcements
Memorial Park Plant Sale a Success: To quote the newsletter: This year’s Memorial Park Plant Sale set the record for worst weather forecast but best actual weather. By the time it really started to rain, the buyers were gone and we were all ready to pack it up anyway. . . . Many thanks to John and Cindy Mason, Theresa Treasure, Mrea Csorba, Janet Bednarz, Ruth Rouleau and friend, Connie, Ed Cook, Katharine Luckett, Aaron Billger and Kathy Clevenger. Also, an extra special thank you Suzan Lami and Julie Crolius for a veritable nursery of donated plants (and to Rob for transporting them); to Michael Neill for great things to nosh on; to my Ellen and to Amy Gee and Merrill Marcovsky for working all day. Jim Burkett and I are delighted to add Merrill as a third wheel. She could sell sand in the desert and ice cream to the Eskimos. And, of course, thank you to the unknown deliverers of pots and plants to the backyard on Harlow Street.
