Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, September 5. As has been the case for
quite some time for the September meetings, it will be Members' Night.
Several members will be giving 5-10 minute presentations on a variety of
topics.
As in the past, our September "Members' Night" will provide an opportunity
for several members to share some of their botanical travel or research
slides, or to present other short subjects (10 minutes or less) to which
this format is especially suited. Members who plan to present slides
should send an email to Vice-President Mary McKenna at dr.mary.mckenna at
gmail dot com.
