Optimistic for a Great Year

 

"The Holidays" are officially over and a New Year is before us. We are constantly reminded of the culture we live in with the starling events in Las Vegas and New Orleans. Some people are dealing with extraordinary personal loss. As citizens, we have huge responsibilities to extend messages of hope and be a place for healing and restoration for our family, friends, and people in need.


Let the new year bring smiles, great adventures, and exciting new experiences to each of you. Enjoy the rest of the winter and prepare for Spring - be optimistic for 2025 and the extraordinary work you do as garden club members. We may not know what the future holds, however, we know we need leaders and I challenge you to be active in your local clubs and state organizations to keep both strong and healthy.


— Doris Van Mullen, FGCV President
