Nazareth Area Garden Club 14th Annual Flower
and Garden Show
The Nazareth Area Garden Club celebrated its 14th Flower and Garden Show
at the Schoeneck Moravian Church Fellowship Hall this month. The Theme this
year was “Gardening…Dig it!”
Members displayed more than 200 Houseplants and horticulture specimens,
and 43 Floral Arrangements. All entries were judged by non-member experts
in horticulture and floral arranging. In addition to individual categories, they
awarded Best in Show to the entries deemed to be the best in their category,
and Sweepstakes Awards, for the most first places by an individual member, in
each category.
This year’s winners were:
Arrangements: Best of Show, Sandee Rinehart, runner up Phoebe Cubberly
Sweepstakes: a tie between Sandee Rinehart and Debbie DeSousa
Horticulture: Best of Show, Evanne Maher, runner up Sandee Rinehart
Sweepstakes: Evanne Maher
Houseplants: Best of Show, Connie Sabatine, runner up Bob Sparrow
Sweepstakes: A tie between Debbie DeSousa and Bob Sparrow
Also, in the Floral Arrangement category, special trophies are awarded to Novice
and Intermediate designers for one specific design. This year's awards went
to Julie Anderson and Mimzy Schaller for their "Toadily Green" entries. Cathy
Gordon and Carol Miller were runners up.
This year we grew two Club Project plants, a Basil called “Purple Ruffles” and
a beautiful annual Lantana called “Camera.” The winner of both was Kathy
Juran. Loretta Rhyder took second place for the Basil and Julie Anderson for
the Lantana.
The small window box category brought 18 entries. The Judges selected
Mimzy Schaller for the blue ribbon and the Audience selected the same entry
as their favorite. An additional special project was a 5" hanging terrarium called
Dew Drops. The winner of that category was Phoebe Cubberly. Evanne Maher
was runner up for both.
The Nazareth Area Garden Club meets each month from March through
November at the Drylands UCC Church at 4415 Newburg Rd., Nazareth at 7:00

Bangor Slater Uniform Fund Drive
The Bangor Area High School Marching Band uniforms, which are modeled after
Her Majesty’s Royal Welsh Guard, pay tribute to the heritage of Bangor, PA. After
years of normal wear and tear, the uniforms must be replaced. The new uniforms
will continue to use the same style. The Slater Band Boosters have initiated a fund
drive to support this effort. The Boosters will appreciate any donations, small or
large, to this cause. The names of contributors will be acknowledged in concert
programs during the 2016-2017 school year. Names of contributors at higher
levels will be memorialized on a plaque to be displayed in the theater wing of the
high school. More information is available at www.bahsbands.weebly.com. Send
your tax deductible contributions to: Slater Band Boosters, Uniform Drive, c/o
Charlie Cole, 608 Shawnee Street, Roseto, PA 18013.
