[BSW] Ideas for 1000th meeting sought + another article about James Duke

[Kathy Bilton]

In May, the Botanical Society of Washington will be to having its 1000th 
meeting!

To celebrate that occasion we are planning to do something different from 
our regular meeting and are seeking input from members about how we might 
go about commemorating this special day.  It will likely take place on the 
weekend rather than on our standard Tuesday evening. So, please think 
about this and drop an email to kathy at fred.net with your ideas.  I will 
collect them and pass them along to our president, Melanie Schori.

---------------------------------------------------------

Chris Puttock will be speaking at our January 8th meeting. The general 
topic is Milkweeds.  A more specific title will be provided at a later 
date.    (Second Tuesday as the first would be New Year's Day.)
