NGC Convention in Buffalo

Another great NGC Convention! So many from the NCA were able to travel to Buffalo, NY during the weekend on May 19th. Can you believe it has only been a year since NCA hosted the 2011 Convention when Shirley Nicolai was installed as President of NGC and there was dancing in the street!
Attendees from the NCA shown with Vickie Godwin, President of NCA, are Poss Tapley, Dale DeFeo, Estelle Woodcock, Ellen Spencer, Anne Bucher, Libby Coffey, Jo Sellers, Babs McClendon, M'Ellen Alsen and Jeannette Vaughn.
There is always so many faces to see and so much to learn at these annual conventions. Consider attending the 2013 National Garden Club Convention which will be in Seattle, Washington May 24-26, 2013.
Check out these additional National Garden Club photos posted on flickr. There are some really great miniature designs!

No. You can learn through the educational and workshop programs presented by your club. . . and you can further enhance your learning by attending District meetings and NCAGC General Meetings. NCAGC also offers the opportunity to participate in its schools on landscape and floral design, gardening, and the environment.
