Thanks to all that came out to the Commons Clean-up last weekend – David, Jonathan & Susan Pepin, Nancy LeBow, Joan Phillips, Renee & Kon Gokey, Jean Bever, Katy Johnson, Steve & Nasrin Lescure, and Len & Joyce Skoglund. Thanks to the CCHCA Community Appearance Committee (Country Hills Garden Club) for organizing.
See some of the group in action below.
A few pictures of the Commons, decorated for the holidays. Thanks to Joyce Skoglund and Nasrin Lescure! See the gallery below (gallery will auto-rotate – hover mouse over picture to pause).
Nancy LeBow and Joyce Skoglund of the Garden Club, and myself, planted three Winterberry bushes down at the Commons yesterday. They will add some color in the winter. They are kind of invisible in the pictures below due to the lack of leaves, but that will change in spring!
The Country Hills Garden Club has been decorating the neighborhood for the holidays!
At each entrance.
And down at the Commons.
Thanks to all who came out for the clean-up at the Commons last weekend, as well as those that came out earlier in the year. It’s been a very successful season. Thanks to Betty Russell and the Garden Club for leading the never-ending effort.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get pictures before the leaves started falling all over the freshly laid mulch. But you can still see how nicely our plants are nestled in for the winter.

Thanks to everybody who came out to the going away party for Betty Russell. We had a nice turnout! It was a fitting tribute for all the work Betty has done over the years at the Commons. She has done a tremendous job. Thanks to Nancy LeBow and Joyce Skoglund of the Garden Club for organizing.
A few pictures below. Note the new bench in honor of Betty. Thanks to the CIty for working with us to obtain it.
