1 . Azalea Trumpet Fall and Early Winter 2014 AZALEA DISTRICT REPORT: September, 2014 Can you really believe that Fall is here and I am into my 18 th month as Azalea District Director? Well, the Amazing Azaleas have been very busy with different workshops and club and council activities in Azalea District has a total of 55 clubs with over 1300 members (changing all the time we hope to a plus) and these clubs have been very busy during this past Garden Club year. We have added 58 new members from the last President s Reports and according to the reports we have a total of 19 Standard of Excellence Clubs and two Councils with Standard of Excellence. I will also be handing out a total of 130 certificates at our Annual Meeting in Milledgeville to clubs that participated in: Garden Therapy, Historic Preservation, Land Trust-Marshall Forest, State Botanical Gardens, Le- Conte-Woodmanston, Natural Disasters and 100% Sale of Calendars. We had a great representation at the Annual Convention in Macon in May and many Azalea Clubs walked away with State Awards. Hats off to each one that attended as well as those clubs that won awards!! Remember, if you don t send them in you will not win!! Azalea Director s Message Learning and Growing in Life s Garden. Fall & Early Winter 2014 On August 19, 2014, we held our Azalea Board Meeting at the State Botanical Gardens. We received a warm welcome from Dr. Wilf Nickolls, Director of the Gardens. He showed a short video of the future children s garden Reconnecting Kids with Nature and after the meeting anyone that chose to do so was invited to take a garden golf cart tour of behind the scenes activities.
2 (Director s Letter continued) Celia Brown, At Home with Flowers chairman for the District has started a new class the first of five being held August 27 th at State Botanical Gardens. Azalea District was well represented at the Wild & Wonderful Camp with 13 energetic campers. Augusta Council just sponsored a free one day workshop on Making a World of Difference Choices Matter and are busy working on upcoming Garden Study Schools. Check the Date Register on GCG website for future dates. Clubs in the Milledgeville area and Council are busy planning our Annual Meeting for October 22, 2014 at the Milledgeville Country Club. You don t want to miss this Fall Fiesta. I have enjoyed representing Azalea District at the Founders Memorial Garden Luncheon, Following in the Footsteps of the Bartram s at the Atlanta History Center, and the Cherokee Garden Library Luncheon. All of this is very interesting and informative information. This is something that everyone needs to see. Then dine in the wonderful Swan House Restaurant. Also, I am travelling over the state during this month visiting the other six Districts. Amazing to see, learn about and enjoy! Amazing Azaleas are Learning and Growing in Life s Garden Peggy H. Tucker District Director Fall Fun in the Founders Memorial Garden Its been a wonderful Summer and there is still time to continue celebrating the 75 th Anniversary of the Founders Memorial Garden, the UGA College of Environment and Design (CED) will be hosting one more Friday evening event. What a wonderful place to enjoy a stroll through a beautiful garden and see an evening of FREE entertainment. So put October 10th on your Calendar for a viewing of the Wizard of Oz movie for all ages (Halloween costume contest, too!)

3 Tab YOU Lation (Word definition - YOU gathering tabs for Ronald McDonald House) Amazing Azaleas, The race in on!, says our ever ready Save-A-Tab State Chairman, Betty Davis. Please get your tabs to your tabs chairman, Rachael Tribble, bring to the District Meeting or take them to the Ronald McDonald House. Be sure to let Rachael or Betty know how many pounds you delivered. In Azalea District won First in State. Last year we were Third. Let's get busy and move back into First for Our Pull-tabs help fund the Ronald McDonald House. It benefits families seeking medical treatment for their sick or injured child. The home has helped more than 16,000 families since opening its doors in Sooooooo please contact Azalea District Chairman Rachel Tribble at racheltribble@att.net or for more information or to coordinate donations.

5 Azalea District Board Meeting at State Botanical Gardens August 19, 2014 Speaker, Dr. Wilf Nickolls, New Director of State Botanical Garden. Dr. Nickolls was delighted to get a call from UGA," he says, lauding the esteemed reputation of the University of Georgia's horticulture program that features world-renowned masters in the field including Michael Dirr, Allan Armitage and Jim Affolter. He states, "We can't afford to be thought of as just a pretty place, I want to be a better teller of the garden story," he continues. "We have an opportunity to educate and inspire through beauty and delight and to make people advocates for gardens and plants." August District Board Meeting Chairman Virginia Lassiter presents Azalea District Director, Peggy Tucker, with a painting of Plum Leaf Azalea Rhododendron Prunifloium, the official flower of Azalea District..

11 Native Plant Symposium When: Wednesday, January 21, 2015** Where: Time: The Garden Club of Georgia, Terrace Room 8:45 am - 3:30 pm Native plants are uniquely adapted to local conditions, having co-evolved with other plants, animals, pollinators, and soil biota. Therefore they require little maintenance and withstand temperature and moisture extremes. Most importantly, native plants provide diverse sources of food and shelter for a wide variety of insects and birds, butterflies, mammals, reptiles, etc. in the complex web of life. Join us for a day-long program that considers gardening with native flowers and trees along with related conservation issues. Learn how to incorporate your appreciation of these plants into your home landscape plan during this day long series of presentations. Fee: $60 (lunch included) More information on topics and speakers plus a registration form will be sent when plans are finalized.
