The Naperville Garden Club is a non-profit organization that has been active in our community for over 90 years. Through the decades we have fulfilled our mission to promote the love of gardening, floral design, and civic and environmental responsibility. This recent NCTV17 Spotlight Interview gives some great information about our club.
The tradition is being carried forward through our 2019-20 activities, community projects , and scholarships. Our annual Cup of Cheer™ fundraiser and dedicated members are the means for our accomplishments. Unfortunately this meeting is cancelled as of March 14th.Wednesday, March 25th at White Eagle Golf Club. Guests of members as well as the general public are welcome. Nina Koziol, Horticulturist and Garden Writer will present "Art in the Garden". Nina teaches horticulture and design at the Chicago Botanic Garden. Social time starts at 8:45 AM followed by a 9:15 AM meeting and program. Cost: $17 members, $20 guests. Reservations are required by March 19th and may be telephoned to Barbara at 630-650-4405. If you are interested in becoming a member , contact us — we're fun as well as dedicated! Visit our new Members Only Area! |

ALERT:
A message from our president.
Though we are apart, some Club functions must go on and others must be cancelled. Due to the government stay-at-home orders, I announce the cancellations of the general APRIL MEETING, May Board and May Luncheon meetings plus the May Plant Sale and May Plant Exchange. It is too uncertain on what is ahead. As the viral threat lessens and we will get back to social/public access. Let’s hope we will meet again in September for a happy reunion!
I look forward to the day we meet again as a Club, and rejoice in working together on projects.
Happy Earth Day on April 22 as we celebrate its 100th anniversary.
Stay healthy! Blessings, Diane Greenawalt
