Monday, October 18, 2010 - KW Garden Club Talk Well Received

Welcome back. Today, Brian was the guest speaker at the October meeting of the Kitchener Waterloo Garden Club held at the Albert McCormack Arena in Waterloo.  The talk was well received by 60 or so people in attendance. Due to scheduling  of other meeting components by the organizers, we didn't have much opportunity for questions and discussions; but we were encouraged and enjoyed the interaction that we had.  I was particularly pleased to have an email awaiting my return to our shop offering some constructive criticism and questioning some detail of my information. That's great and I would like to encourage that kind of 2 way communication on this blog.  Feel free to post a comment.
