welcome to our new Garden Club STATE President…all
the way from England, Elizabeth Tufo.
As in all Garden Clubs, there are
chairmen. One of our own is serving as Chairman for CGCI
Honor Books, Sharon Thorne. Sharon has the following message:
“Did you know that you can honor any CGCI member
with outstanding service, contributions or memorials by
having their name printed in an Honor Book? We urge you
to think of honoring a club member. Recognition of the
work and/or service of members are extremely important
to the success of goals of CGCI, your club, and your district.
1. Gold Honor Book: The funds collected are used for any
of the objectives of CGCI upon a vote of the board of Directors.
This fund also provides partial funding for the Smokey
Bear/Woodsy Owl Poster Contests.
2. Copeland Honor Book: This Honor Book was established
on 1988 by Dorothy Copeland. The interest earned from the
funds is used to help pay Golden Gardens subscriptions
for CGCI life members.
The Honor Books are displayed at the annual meeting of
CGCI.
Contact your president to obtain the form.
CGCI Honor Books Chairman, Sharon Thorne”
