"Gardening" ladies for a great program and food.  You DO NOT NEED TO BE A MEMBER or A RESIDENT IN NORCHESTER. Currently 14 club members live outside of Norchester.

The Kroger Community Rewards Program has donated $40.72 for the care and  maintenance of Matzke Park Butterfly Garden. 

 

Our club membership also maintains the garden the next work day is Monday, October 1st. Below is a note from our chairperson.

AT LAST, it's a bit cooler!!!  Come see the garden in full bloom!

 

Our scheduled work day in the garden is this coming Monday, October 1st around 8:00 - 8:30 for starters. The Three Amigos have been doing a great job and Jonathon is getting ready to plant our bricks and spread new gravel!!

I'll be working on the top right corner of the fence line.  That needs to be prepared for the Arbor Day tree planting in November.

 

We would love to see you all (and you can pull a few weeds too)!

Bring ideas for other flowers we can plant also.

 

So bring a cup of coffee, a bottle of water, Champagne(?) and join us!

2018 First Norchester Garden Club Meeting

The Norchester Garden Clubs first meeting of the 2018 - 2019 year will be held at 9:30 am on Thursday, September 6th at the Norchester Activity Center.  You do not need to be a member of the Norchester Community to enjoy our programs and you are always welcome to drop in.

Conn Steele will be presenting our program on Roses and More.  In addition to hearing about the care and feeding of roses - and more, from a life-long gardener, 

we have some important decisions to make at our first meeting.

Update on Reward Program... one no longer has to re-enroll each year.  If the bottom of your Kroger receipt looks like this.. you are still enrolled.  See previous post to enroll for the first time.

Kroger Community Rewards.. Minor Change

Currently have only a few families supporting the Matzke Park Butterfly Garden by having their Kroger cards linked to Association for Better Community Schools (ABCS), It is important to know that if you sign up with the Kroger Community Rewards program, every Kroger purchase will provide an additional amount that Kroger gives ABCS, who then gives it all to the Norchester Garden Club for the Butterfly Garden Support.  

This does not impact a person's fuel points or cost them anything.

We have been informed of the following.  If you are willing to sign up, be advised our new Community Rewards  number is now WT732.

==============

We have recently upgraded our Community Rewards system, and as a result, your Non-Profit Organization (NPO) has a new account number. (WT732) Please reference the new number when contacting us for assistance. We recommend communicating this new number to your members, and updating any marketing materials with this change. While the previous number will continue to be associated with your organization, it will not be visible to your members when enrolling. New members can enroll by searching for either the new number or the name of your organization.
