JUNE 2014 Germinator - Men`s Garden Club of Youngstown Ohio
Germinator The June 2014 Published by the Men’s Garden Club of Youngstown, Ohio 83Years of Service to the Mahoning Valley and Surrounding Communities PLANT AUCTION JUNE 2ND resident’s Message Time has flown by and we’re 6 months into the New Year. I realize that now is the time for us all to be working on our gardens making sure that we our planting exactly what we have been waiting for since winter. Memorial Day has passed so I believe that we are safe to start our planting. I would also like to say many thanks to everyone who gave their time during the plant sale. We did fairly well during this sale. Also at our board meeting we voted to support Millcreek Park for the upcoming fall seminar. We will donate fifteen hundred dollars as a day sponsor. We want to get with all scholarship winners very soon to present their awards. We all hope that Dan Miller is on a fast road to recovery and are looking forward to his return. Don’t forget our picnic plant sale will be June 4th at Boardman Park. The club will supply beverages and everyone is asked to bring a dish and a reminder to bring your own silverware and dishes. We also will be selling many different types of plants to highest bidder, so if you have any additional plants that you may not want feel free to bring them also. Thank You and hope everyone had a good Memorial Day. Dennis Zap General Meetings 5:30 pm Setup • 6:00 pm Prayer & Dinner Plant Auction Wednesday, June 4th Board Meetings 7:00 pm Wednesday, June 11th All members welcome! page 1 Gentleman - Wives - Significant Others Relatives and Friends On Wednesday, June 4th at 5:30 PM the Men’s Garden Club of Youngstown will be holding their annual Plant Auction at Boardman Park. The cost is: your favorite casserole or potato salad or pasta salad or spinach salad or blueberry pie or rhubarb pie or chocolate pie or coconut cream pie or all of the above. It would also be very beneficial for the club if you would bring something for the auction - anything from vegetable plants plants, herbs, flowers, trees, bushes or weeds. Set-up is at 5:30 or a little earlier if you have a lot to bring in for the auction. We will try to have Rodney, the auctioneer (if I remember to ask him) say grace at 6:00 PM. This is one of our more fun events, since there is relatively little work involved and great eats. As usual you need to bring your own place settings (plate knife fork and spoon). Coffee, pop, water and cold cuts will be provided by the club. WE WILL BE IN THE BEARD CABIN ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE PARK BY THE CHILDREN’S PLAYGROUND - NOT IN THE REGULAR BUILDING. Please call 330-518-6397 Bob McGowan and let him know what you are bringing so he can help co-ordinate the food and get first picks. Also on a good day he might be able to answer any questions.

And with a hoe in one hand and a cold drink in the other, tell somebody else where to dig.” - Texas Bix Bender, Don’t Throw in the Trowel page 2 Germinator The June 2014 MASCO Greenhouse Visitors May 5th, 2014 TWO V. I. P. FROM MASCO VISIT OUR GREENHOUSE. Pete Noll and Kris Khodge from MASCO Greenhouse Board A special Thank You goes out to the family of MCBDD for their continuous support of our sale, as well as our activity in the greenhouse all year long. Flag Day ~ June 14th MASCO Greenhouse Spring Plant Sale Thanks to all who helped out selling and/or purchasing plants. Thursday’s sales were better than ever thanks to the efforts from many of our club members. The plants and baskets were in top condition. The tip top shape of our plants and baskets certainly helped customer purchases. We noticed many of our club members at the sale. If you missed this year’s sale, you missed a good one. Make a note to attend next year’s sale, and bring a friend. You may be surprised what your club can do when we work together. page 3 Germinator The June 2014 THE MGCY 2014 OFFICERS President Dennis Zap 261 E.
