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
