DECEMBER 2023
MEMBER NEWSLETTER Dear Members, The great Andy Williams once crooned, “It’s the most wonderful time of the year!” He was right, December is officially here and it’s simply the best. Special memories to be made with family, all the baked goodies, and upcoming holidays have me in joyful spirits. You’ll want to visit Reiman Gardens soon to escape from the chilly weather. We don’t mean to brag, but our conservatory is the “hottest” place in Ames. Come warm up, unwind, and be sure to check out our beautiful RG Express Train while you’re here.
