WEEDERS WANTED
“IN THE SPRING, AT THE END OF THE DAY, YOU SHOULD SMELL LIKE DIRT.”
MARGARET ATWOOD
If you are willing to smell like dirt, if only for a little while, please come and join us on Tuesdays at 10:30am to help weed, prune and add mulch to the Centennial Garden. The Garden is in need of a little attention, and some WHMCA members have committed to beating the weeds and over growth into submission.
Many hands make light work so come out and help if you can.
