TOGETHER AGAIN FACE-TO-FACE!!
Garden Club members were delighted to gather for their annual Spring Meeting and Installation of Officers for 2021-22. The Achasta Clubhouse provided abundant space for any desired social-distancing, and as the photos show, fully vaccinated members took advantage of the opportunity to reveal smiling, beautiful, unmasked faces.
The air of celebration and revitalization was emphasized by such details as the flower centerpieces, butterfly table decor, and butterfly embellished boxes of Jordan Almonds for each attendee. Appreciation was expressed to those members who devoted their time, energy, and creativity to this effort.
Lunch consisted of an appetizer of hummus with carrot and celery sticks; quiche; Caesar salad; and cheesecake.
