November 2024 newsletter
The November 2024 issue of Seeders and Weeders has the results of the club elections and plans for the holidays.
A new executive
Members acclaimed a nearly full executive for 2025:
- President: Heather Hayes
- Director at large: Sue Wiebe
- Membership chair: Christine Williams
- Speaker coordinator: Heather Freeman
The club is still looking for a vice president. Outgoing president Carolyn Farris thanked all the volunteers who kept the club running this year. She also thanked Glenn Gytenbeek, who kept the club going through COVID and got regular meetings started again.
November meeting
The speaker was ill, so Paul led members in a garden word game instead. The speaker is booked again for March, with a talk about bees.
The Armstrong Elementary School garden project wrote to say the school will be building a school garden.
Membership
Dues of $15 per person will be collected starting in December. Members who have not paid by March will stop receiving club news.
