We want to thank Rebecca Roth for her presentation last night. She was great! If you were not able to attend but would like a copy of her handout or some of the flower seeds she brought, the ones left from last night will be available at the front desk at the museum while supplies last. Thanks again, Rebecca!

Thursday night's menu is BBQ sandwiches or plates with Richard's fantastic BBQ sauce. Sides are baked beans and potato salad, and he's bringing cheesecake squares for dessert. Yum!
