SUMMARY:75th Anniversary Celebration & Recognition Garden Groundbreaking\, August 26th-27th 2022
DESCRIPTION:In The Garden We Grow!\nAugust 26th-27th\, 2022\nRegister Now! \nWe are pleased to announce the 75th Anniversary Celebration of the Alumni Association. We have come a long way and it’s time to celebrate all that we have accomplished as students\, graduates\, and alumni. Along with the 75th anniversary comes the exciting ground breaking of a new garden project. Alumni\, Students\, and the Niagara Parks Commission have been busy creating a plan for a new garden space that focuses on recognizing people who have made significant contributions to the school\, gardens\, and alumni alike. The Recognition Garden plans will be reviewed along with a call for donations to make the project happen. Please consider making a donation to the Recognition Garden fund [Donate Now] or reach out to Art Coles if you would like to discuss funding options further [colesa64@gmail.com] \nThe 75th Celebration is a time to celebrate\, reflect\, and of course socialize with others who like you pulled weeds\, made friends\, and enjoyed the gardens during the years spent at the School of Horticulture and Botanical Gardens. It’s amazing to think of the changes that have occurred on the grounds and to the school program. One thing that has not changed and will surely not change in the future is the impact we all have on the gardens as students and afterwards as alumni. The Alumni Association and Foundation have a special relationship with the school and the grounds. This is something we hope to represent with the 75th Anniversary Celebration and Recognition Garden. \nAGENDA\nFriday August 26th\n5-8 pm Cocktail Hour \n\nDrink service on top of the Butterfly Conservatory [fee for drink purchases]\nLive Music\n2023 West Coast Conference Announcement\nSilent Auction \n\nSaturday August 27th\n12-1 pm Recognition Garden Groundbreaking \n\nDesign Review and garden opening Presented by the Niagara Parks Commission\, the Alumni Association (Shade Garden/White Garden Area)\n\n1-4 pm Lunch with Lawn Games\, School Memorabilia & Guided Garden Tours \n\nCatered Lunch – back of residence building lawn area (registration required to account for numbers)\nOpportunities for review of the Garden Plan Information Centre and to make donations\nSOH Photo Display – historical to present day photos of student life and the gardens (OLH)\nCasual\, family friendly lawn games \nSWAG/Promo material available for purchase (paid members receive 10% off)\nGroup photo\nRaffle (TBD)\nStudent Led Garden Tours (1pm\, 2pm\, 3pm)\n\n4-6:00 pm Free Time \n\nFree time to get dinner\, walk the gardens\, view memorabilia and garden plan information etc.\n\n6:00-8pm Garden Gathering Social (OLH) \n\nCasual gathering in and behind Old Lecture Hall\n\n  \nRSVP for Friday’s cocktail hour (free).  Register/Purchase tickets for Saturday’s events ($35 for non-active members\, $25 for active members and spouses of active members.
