Parkland Garden Club proudly hosted the Patriotic-themed District II/III meeting on June 7th at St. John's Lutheran Church in Slatington. Participants held a business meeeting at 10:00, then enjoyed soup, salad and dessert for lunch. Afterwards, a highlight of the the day included a floral design program presented by Chris Leskosky, followed by a raffle of the 7 beautiful designs.

We had 3 entries for the Trash to Treasure Contest from our group at the February meeting. All had to follow the guidelines below to be considered for the contest. Members who attended the meeting voted on their preferred entry, which will represent the Parkland Garden Club at the contest for District II/III at the meeting in March.
