New Member Luncheon - August 10, 2023

The Shady Oaks Garden Club held a luncheon for new members on August 10th.  Four new members and one who joined last year were attended and each was presented with a small token of welcome.
The agenda included the history of Shady Oaks, Committees, Monthly Meetings, and Ways and Means,  and the topic “So you’ve joined a garden club. Now what?” A lively question and answer session occurred during a delicious lunch!
