AWARDS

 

The purpose of the Awards Committee is to propose candidates to the Garden Club of America Awards Committee for local, zone, or national awards.


A joint GCA Club Community Service Award was presented at our June 2014 picnic to those  members who led our club through the process of the Davis Park renovation. 

From left to right:  Barbie McCabe, Callen McJunkin, Kathy Becker, Tori Hardy and Beth Roby. 

 Although she was unable to attend the picnic Freddy Davis was also honored.

Congratulations to all!
