THE GARDEN CLUB
OF LEXINGTON

GENERAL MEETING

 

JANUARY 15, 1998

The Garden Club of Lexington met Thursday, January 15th at Idle Hour Country Club.
Hostesses were Helen Breckenridge and Jane Milward. Linda Carey, vice president, called the
meeting to order at 10:40. Ginny May introduced our speaker, Barbara Hanson, a member of the
Garden Club of Barrington. She is a remarkably talented and active lady having served as
president of the Barrington Club and vice president and treasurer of GCA. In addition she is
nationally recognized for her flower arranging and judging. Needless to say, it was an
outstanding program. Barbara talked first about arranging and then told us a little about the
Philadelphia Flower Show. We were then treated to beautiful slides from the show with her
narration. It was simply wonderful.

Linda thanked Barbara and Kay Steffe for hosting Barbara and inviting her. A very brief
business meeting followed. Anne Gay moved to dispense with the reading of the minutes, Ginny
Adams seconded and the motion passed. There were no committee reports. Linda distributed
the slate which will be voted on in March.

Mott Nicol gave a short update on Annual Meeting 1998. She asked for volunteers to make food
or donate money to purchase food for the Hospitality Suite. She passed around a sign up sheet.

Linda thanked Helen and Jane for being hostesses. The next meeting will be Thursday, March
19th at 11:00 at Idle Hour. Hostesses are Sarah Davis, Delia Kessinger and Scotty Walton.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 12: 15.

Respectfully submitted
