December Meeting - Potluck!!!

Wednesday, December 17th is the date for the December meeting. Third week instead of the normal fourth because of the holiday season.
*

We will be having a Soup and Salad Potluck Luncheon. Members with the last name of A-M Bring a Dessert and the rest of you bring a Salad. Two people have already signed up for the Soup this year.

This is always a fun meeting with lots of talking and laughing and EATING!! How good is that?!?

We will also have a short program from Beverly Brune on the Conejo Valley Botanic Garden. I know she will be bringing pictures to share with us of our wonderful hometown Garden.


There will be no horticulture this month, no time, but be thinking about what you will bring in January! Aren't we lucky that even in the middle of winter we can still bring in our horticulture!

Come and help us celebrate the holiday season and our own Conejo Valley Garden Club!!

December Senior Concerns

This Wednesday, December 10th we had the Senior Concerns Workshop. As always this was held at Senior Concerns on Hodencamp Drive here in Thousand Oaks. There was music and crafts and lots and lots of laughing.

Here is the group that came from the Garden Club. I spy some new members helping out!! Good job!

Busy, busy, busy making citrus baskets.

Our President, Lillian provided the music by playing her flute.

Here is the finished product all ready to be wrapped up in cellophane and taken home.

I'm sure everyone had a great time. I think the next one will be in February so keep your ears open at the meetings and watch the newsletter. This looks like way too much fun to miss!!

Newbury Park Library Decorations

On Friday, December 5th a group from the Garden Club went over to the Newbury Park Library to decorate the children's section. We put toys and wrapped presents on the top of the shelves.

Dolls, and trains and all kinds of toys.

Teddy Bears of course.


The group that went over from the Garden Club. We have been doing this every year for several years now. Make some time to go over and see the display that Sherry thought up. It is very cute. It will be up though the holidays until the first of the year.
