95th Birthday Party - 95 And Still Moving Forward
Terrebonne Garden Club celebrated its 95th year as an integral part in the history of Terrebonne Parish on April 12, 2024. To commemorate the occasion members planned and participated in several events. Among the guests attending: Louisiana Garden Club President Patricia Ortalano, Louisiana Garden Club Environmental Concerns/Conservation Chairman Donna Bucci, Terrebonne Parish Auditoriums, Museums, and Main Street Manager Ann Picou, Terrebonne Parish Zoning and Land Use Director Chris Pulaski.
A NGC Small-Standard Flower Show, titled “95 Years of Gardening Memories”, kicked off the festivities which was followed by a luncheon and birthday cake. The keynote speaker was Peggy Martin who has been a mainstay in the New Orleans Old Garden Rose Society for many years. She and her husband, MJ, lived in Plaquemines Parish, but after Katrina, moved to Gonzales. To culminate the celebration President Patricia Ortalano awarded the club a certificate in honor of its 95 years of service.
Head Hostess Frances Pellegrin was the designer of all the flowers arrangements on the tables and these were given as door prizes. Hostesses wearing garden club aprons served the meal and the cake to the ninety plus members and guests.
