Garden Tour
Submitted by Susan Barr, Co-Chair of the Garden Tour Committee
The
Gilmanton Year Round Library would like to thank the following
sponsors for their support at the 4th Annual Garden Tour which was
held on Saturday, July 16, 2011, under gloriously sunny skies:
Bedard Preservation, Cole Gardens (and donated items), The Tanksure
Program, Spider Web Gardens and Stafford Oil Co.
Thanks go out to all those who helped with set up/clean up, food
preparation, parking, registration and raffle sales including:
Carolyn Dickey, Elizabeth Bedard, Cindy Hatch, Meg Nighswander,
Linda Clarke, Carmel Roberts, Nanci Mitchell, Lu Philipps, Thomie
Dombrowski, Bert Philipps, John Dickey, Steve Bedard, Dick Barr, Sue
Harris, Peter Woodard and Chris Schlagel.
Our
deepest thanks is extended to Patty Humphrey for not only sharing
her gorgeous gardens, but for being the most gracious and generous
hostess imaginable. Also to Audrey and Dan Humphrey, who
allowed their home to become our “center of operations.”
Our
sincere appreciation is also extended to our guest lecturer, Roger
Swain, (host of PBS’ The Victory Garden) who combined just the right
amount of knowledge and wit to inform and entertain, and his
companion, Ouida Young.
Lastly, our heartfelt thanks goes out to all those who attended this
amazing event to support the Gilmanton Year Round Library and
joining us for a magical day.
