  Summer Notes...
   from the desk of District X Director, Sandra Arlund

Summer Sunshine and Roses to All!

As with the seasons in nature, we are constantly growing and changing. Summer months find many of us heading north, traveling or ambitiously planning for the new season in the Fall. I hope that you will continue to check back into this website often. In keeping with the FFGC 2009-2011 theme 'Reach  Out.. Be A Mentor' and our District X theme 'Helping Hands... Be An Advisor' please know that our District X Board of Directors and Committee Chairman are always here to lend a hand  in answering your questions or to direct you to resources or information. You can find all of  their contact information on our District X Directory page. Please update any anticipated changes to your club information as son as possible, so that we can have current information available. Also, please remember to share your important club events and we will post them on our Upcoming Events Calendar. Don't forget to share  your 'photo op' events with us as well. As always, it is fun to see the faces of our members, and this website is a perfect forum for many of you who do not have your own website.

Spring burst forth all around District X with glorious garden tours, flower shows, and our wonderful FFGC Annual convention
As you all know, District X hosted the 84th FFGC Annual Convention in Boca Raton in April. Our own Carol Hall, FFGC President, and Joleen King, Convention Chairman, and her fabulous Committee were outstanding! District X definitely  made a STATE-ment in Florida.
 
'Flamingos & Flowers' was the inviting theme selected by the Garden Club of  Fort Pierce who hosted the annual District X Spring Meeting on April 29, 2010 at the Pelican Yacht Club in Ft. Pierce.

Have a wonderful and relaxing summer, and be sure to smell the roses along the way!

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions:
How do I submit information and photographs for posting on the District X website?

Information may be submitted directly to the webmaster either directly in an email or an email with an attachment. Information is for FYI purposes and should not be too lengthy. These events are one's that are usually open to members, guests, and general public, and often provide income to club/circle. Give specifics such as Sponsoring Club/Circle; Name of Event and brief description; Date; Time, Place (with directions if needed); Admission (if any), and contact person's phone or email address. If Club/Circle has own website please advise and we will provide link to site as well. Also, if Publicity or Additional information has been posted on-line ( i.e. YourHub, etc.) please provise link to article and we will include this as well.

Photographs should be in JPG format and no larger than 5x7, and emailed to webmaster as an attachment.  Please identify event and individuals or particulars in each photo. Usually we try to keep number per individual club to no more than six (6) because of limited space.

Any additional questions may be sent directly to the webmaster.

Who can I contact about finding speakers for my Club/Circle meetings/programs or interesting ideas for destination day trip adventures ?

District X has a wealth of information that has been put together in a Resource Directory that has been compiled by Donna Swift of the St. Lucie West Garden Club.
FYI, this was a herculean undertaking and Donna should be acknowledge and thanked for personally taking on this invaluable project. Her contact info is: DonnaCobbSwift@aol.com
