Green Thumbers have record attendance
"Spring has sprung" for
the newly re -activated Green
Thumbers with a record
attendance last Friday night
at their first meeting at
Victoria Public School.
Approximately 60 people
attended this meeting and 40.
signed up as members for
the Club. Parents, senior
executive, and former Green
Thumbers constituted the
balance of the turnout.
The meeting was called to
order by Mrs.. Barnett who
introduced the senior
executive: Mrs. Mary
Nelson, president, Mrs.
Bridget Mathers,secretary;
Mrs. Leslie Zolob, treasurer;
Mrs. Gertrude Fritzley,
program • convener; Mrs.
C,,ro1 Wilson, social con-
vener and Mr. Bill Wisser,

junior executive: Shelley

Gauley, vice-president; Jan
Russello, secretary, Alan
Young, treasurer; Liz
Sheardown, social convener
and Angie Good, mem-
bership convener. Mrs.

over to Shelley Wilson.
Shelley read the Junior

welcomed the guests. She
called on Mrs. Zolob to read
the treasurer's report (a
good sum left over from the
former club. had been turned
back to the Juniors by the
Senior Garden Club):
Mrs. Barnett then showed
slides of fortner Green
Thumber activities, which
included hikes, picnics,
junior's gardens, bus trips,
arrangement workshops,
floral arrangements,
specimen 'blooms and at both
Rose Shows and late Sum-
mer Flower Shows.
Following the slide
presentation, former Green
Thumber, George Zoethout,
(one of the very first
members of the original
club) spoke to the
newcomers, telling, them
how much he had enjoyed
the club and encouraged
them to take an active part
in all functions, assuring
them they would have a
`great time'. "It's lots of fun,
but you have to work too, if
you want to have a good
garden and win prizes at the
shows, you'll have. fun out at
Mrs. Barnett's °lace, too."
Then up stepped another
young man, Gardner
Moulton, who proudly
produced a lovely bronze
plaque, which had been
donated by Art's -Land-
scaping and won by Gard-
ner.
From the second. ,row a
young lady held up a number
of red, blue and gold ribbons,
with 'gold -lettering
"Goderich Green . Thum-
bers", Valerie Montgomery
proudly displayed proof of
-her hours of hard work and
at the same time 'fun' get-
ting ready for a flower show,
and explained what a thrill it
was to find a ribbon by your
exhibit, "especially the red
ones, you see they are first
prize winners, and you too,
can win ribbons if you really
try. Have a good time with
Junior Gardeners."
Ann Allen,another former
Green Thumber was there
and ably and willingly
assisted with the distribution
of door prize tickets, and
coordinated the raffle for a
draw for a beautiful
Hibiscus.
President Shelley, then
called on senior garden club
president, Norma Hazlett,
who came forward and
delivered an inspiring and
encouraging talk on the joys
and rewards of gardening
' and with tongue in cheek
produced a package of
sunflower seeds she had
planned to distribute
amongst the new members.
'She •;hastily' assured them
that since she was happily
shocked with such a large
attendance she would see
that at the nextmeeting
there would be sufficient
sunflower seeds • for
everyone.
Mrs. Barnett gave a
demonstration on , planting
seedlings for early spring
blooms, to be started in-
doors. Mrs. Barnett ran into
the same "happy problem" -
she had prepared pots, earth
