DIANE PRATT- 1st Vice President NORRISTOWN GARDEN CLUB
OLVIA BRADY Last week the Club welcomed two leaders of the Norristown Garden Club, DAINE PRATT, First VP, and OLIVIA BRADY, Second VP, who gave us a talk on the history, goals, and events of the organization. The Norristown Garden Club was founded in 1913 to "promote interest in the culture of flowers". This goal is now carried out through many projects and events in the community like their Norristown Blooms project beautifying Norristown, flower shows, flower design workshops, and projects at the Library, Excessive Path, Theater Horizon, and many others.
Their major event for each year is their annual Holiday House Tour which presents five houses in the Norristown area, that have been decorated by members, following a given holiday theme. This year's even is its 75th anniversary and will be held on Dec. 12. The cost is #35 with the proceeds going to the club's scholarship fund.
Visit their website for more information and many beautiful pictures from their events and projects.
