Along The Path Spring is here, and I love it! I think it is my favorite time of year here: St. Patrick’s Day, our GCH Garden Walk, Lent, the Rodeo, Azalea Trail at Rienzi, the tennis matches, plus It’s a magical time in the garden! We’ve got lots on our calendar and please remember to always check the Calendar on our Website for any changes or updates to our events. For example, our April General Meeting has a venue change, so you will want to go to the calendar to make note of that. Please pay attention to this important information about this year’s Garden Walk: Susanne Pritchard is generously and graciously hosting us in her garden; this will be a nice time for us to enjoy the fresh spring air and have boxed lunches together. In years past this has been an event that was open for bringing friends and neighbors – this year it’ll be for GCH Members exclusively and we will need to know that you are planning to attend so that you’ll have a boxed lunch waiting for you. It is very important that you go to the calendar on our website and sign yourself up to attend. The date is Friday, March 25. Elisa Pye and Christine Williams are the Chairs of this event, so please get with them if you have questions. Thanks to Susan Miclette for hosting the Advisory Board. We met at her beautiful home in February and got right down to business and discussed and approved next year’s budget and the CCC report. Thanks to Ruthie Kelly (Finance), Nancy Wilson Kelley (CCC), and Catherine Randall (Admissions) and to everyone on those Committees for all their work over the fall/winter - nicely done! Susan Cravens and Mary Jornayvaz delivered another fabulous outing for us in February: a morning at Enchanted Gardens in Richmond and lunch and shopping in downtown Rosenberg afterward. Be sure to sign up for their next offering: March 30 to Shangri La Botanic Garden in Orange, TX followed by a visit to the ower show in Beaumont – all on The Vonlane! We’ve got an outdoors workshop for Horticulture on Monday, the 7th (10 am to 11:30) at my house with Dany Millikin, from Houston Botanic Garden. This is for all skill levels, and no equipment is necessary. Sign up to spend a morning with friends in the garden. For March’s General Meeting, we are back at St. Martin’s (9:30 am sharp) on the 9th! See you there. Happy Spring,
