Gardening on 5th St. 2002
We were asked to be part of the Gardening on 5th Street this year and WPS took advantage of this great opportunity to raise money for our web site. WPS members Bonnie, Marilyn and Rhonda ran the booth Saturday and Sunday April 20 & 21st.. We had a great time with lots of very nice folks. Bonnie brought her camera and got some great shots. She is now WPS's official photographer.
We raised $60 for the web site which gets us paid in full for this year and have 2/3 of the cost of next years. So we are happy. The money came from selling WPS T-shirts, and donations made from plant sales and donations.
We had a good time and met some really nice people while we were at it. Nine people signed up to be members of WPS and we passed out about 100 or more WPS business cards so we may get some more members after they visit our web page or come to some meetings. A BIG WPS WELCOME to all the new members!
Last but certainly not least, we helped numerous ponders having problems and they were so happy to know there was some place they could find help with their ponds.
Yes, that is Bonnie from Bonnie's Greenhouse getting a dragonfly painted on her arm!
