The Rotary club of Smith Mountain Lake presented certificates to the helping members of the SML Master Gardiners in recognition of their work in the SML Giving Garden. Pictured above are De English, Marion Wagner, Jim Mann, Helen Short and Mary Thurmond. Through the fruits of labor, the Giving Garden has provided more than 2000 pounds of fresh vegetables to be distributed last year by Lake Christian Ministries.
It is estimated that over 900 hours have been volunteered by the members of the Rotary Club and the Master Gardiners. The Rotary club also wishes to recognize the Booker T. Washington Memorial staff that has graciously provided the land behind the administration building for the garden. The Rotary Club of Smith Mounhtan Lake meets on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month for breakfast at the Westlake Golf & Country Club. The meetings begin at 7:15 AM and last for about an hour.
For additional information on the SML Giving Garden or club, meetings contact Steve Miller at 540-721-0336.
