Garden Club Decorates Crofton for the Holidays

Posted on 12/02/2009 by mwoda

Yesterday, when Crofton Village Garden Club members decorated the Crofton Village Green and Front Gate for the holidays, it was one of the warmest days in the history of our 40-year tradition.  Club members have sometimes faced biting cold, wind, and even rain, but this year we lucked out with a very nice day.

Crofton Village Garden Club donates and hangs  the live greens and beautiful red bows for these areas.  But that’s not all.  We also donate wreathes to the Crofton area schools and Crofton Library.

So… the next time you see a garden club member, say “Thank You”.   We work hard to dress our community for the holidays!

Special thanks to Carole Hampton who chairs this committee.
