Fall Cleanup of the Boulevard

On October 1st 27 “Get R Done Gals” from our Oakmont in Bloom Committee gathered at the post office in pink t-shirts to pull the pretty pink petunias out of the 26 tree wells in the Oakmont business district. The petunias were removed and the tree wells weeded and cleaned up and prepared for winter. Soon the 9 urns in the business will be decorated for the holidays with big red bows, holiday greens, twinkling lights and wrapped presents. Photos by Judie Beynon.

Fall Kerr Museum Cleanup

When Oct 27th was picked for Kerr Museum Cleanup Day, a beautiful fall day was hoped for, but it wasn't the case. Thank you to Nancy Kline, Paula Jesion, Judy Murray, Karyn Brooks, Karen Schempp, and Carol Coulson for all the help and hard work on that cold blustery day. Your help got the job done

Gardening With Seniors

From Our Own Gardens
Once again we are doing Gardening With Seniors remotely due to Covid. Our traditional first project in the fall has been making arrangements of flowers from our gardens. Since we cannot visit the residents at Presbyterian Senior Care and Oakmont Center for Nursing and Rehab, Lilly and Brigitte gathered flowers from members’ gardens and created 51 arrangements. They delivered the lovely bouquets to the facilities for the staff to deliver to the residents.
