She talked about fly-outs from an Aircraft Museum, an air-show, Warbirds, the demands of the pilots of that time, and of the highlight being the Spitfires. Janet highly recommended the event.

Glenn gave an update on the funs raised for the Open Gardens: approximately $14,000, a higher profit over last year’s $8,800. One of the changes made on last year was the increase of price on the country gardens, making the value of a multiple ticket more attractive. There were 478 people that went through the gardens. Overall, between the Open Garden and the Garden Expo, Rotary has raised approx. $30,000.
