Mandarin Garden Club
volunteers met and greeted visitors. They shared what the club offers to the
community. Information brochures along with sweet wildflower seeds packets were
handed out. We reminded the public that the gardens were open and invited them
to visit.
Thank you to all the
volunteers that represented the club throughout the day.

On November 29th
another group of volunteers spent an afternoon and evening creating period
Christmas ornaments for the Walter Jones farmhouse. Popcorn and cranberries
were strung with the greatest of care. Cinnamon and dried fruit ornaments were
made for a real tree and to adorn native greenery. Red ribbon tied it all
together. Thank you to:
Betty Waldrep (Dogwood)
Pat Sams (Dogwood)
Gail Cook (Dogwood)
Donna Crosby (Live Oak)
for spending their
time and talents on making this project shine.
Thank you again to
Wanda Bosworth, who helped forage the ton of greenery that was used in this
year's decorations.
Thank you again to
Mary Forester for remembering this project and giving a heads up when garden volunteers
were trimming the Magnolia trees.
Shared stories and so
much laughter along with a special appearance by Santa made this day very
special. All of the Mandarin Garden Club volunteers are officially on Santa's
good list. That is straight from the big guy himself.
