IDHS Newsletter September 2022

 

Thank you to everyone that supported the Show and a very big Thank you to Di Barnaby and her team of helpers who made it such a great success. Planning has already started for 2023! If anyone would like to volunteer to join the show sub committee to start work on the schedule, Di would love to hear from you.

 

Our next meeting is this Thursday -29th September at 7.30pm when we will be welcoming Andrew McIndoe to talk to us on the Creative Shrub Garden. There will be plants for sale and a raffle to include a signed copy of one of his many books.

Refreshments will be done by Minnie McKay and Jenny Curry, two new members, and we will have the usual members competition.

There is an entry charge of £5 for any non members for this meeting to help cover speaker costs. Tickets will be available on the door.

 

Our secretary John Humphry, who has done a sterling job for good number of years, has decided to step down at our AGM in November so we are looking for a new secretary. Please consider joining the committee to help out. The job primarily involves sending out this newsletter, keeping minutes of committee meetings and the AGM, and being the link for Hampshire and Dorset Federations & the RHS for all external communications.

 

We are looking forward to seeing you on Thursday

 

Your Committee
