Blue Jeans Garden Club
The March 16 meeting of the Blue Jeans Garden Club was held at the home of Margaret Heitzmann, Bay St. Louis, with 23 members and two guests in attendance.
Co-hostesses for the afternoon were Esa Brechtel and Lucille Witter who opened the meeting with a prayer for peace and the reading of an inspirational poem ‘The Words We Speak,’ author unknown.
President Dot Feaheny introduced two guests to the members, Alice Brechtel and Mayola Rotterham who were enthu-siatically welcomed by the ladies.
Among the many topics of discussion during the busy afternoon was the Blue Jeans attending in a group the Spring Pilgrimage April 6. The ladies were 100 percent in favor.
It was decided, after a unanimous vote, the Blue Jeans would sponsor two athletes in the Special Olympics this year.
Jennie Ortis, Alice Brechtel and Mary Danna will also sponsor one athlete with Beverly Coogan and Virginia Thomas sponsoring another for a total of four athletes from the Blue Jeans.
To further support the Special Olympics, a large number of the members and their guests will attend the Special Olympics luncheon May 12 in a group.
President Feaheny read a letter of appreciation from the Food Bank for the club’s support in their endeavors.
The lengthy business meeting was finally concluded with judging of plants and arrangements submitted by members.
Winning points in the March competition among members were Gloria Norton, dried; Lucille Witter, potted; Irene Graff, miniature; Joyce Hicks, horticulture and Virginia Thomas, cultivated.
Annabelle Cox won the door prize, a lovely potted plant, and Beulah Peterson won the 50/50. Next meeting will be April 20.
