One of our beneficiaries from funds raised by the 2007 Hidden Garden Tour, was Portland Trails.  Our contribution helped complete and reopen Jack Path.  This path is part of a walking trail on Munjoy Hill which connects Walnut Street at Sheridan with the new East End Community School (formerly Jack Elementary School) on North Street and the Eastern Prom.  Jack Path is less than 1/4 of a mile long through woodsy terrain.  On the day the committee presented our check, school children were helping put in plantings along the trail.

It's the end of March.  Garden Tour tickets will go on sale in April.  The gardens are lined up and we're looking for volunteers to sit in the gardens.  Next will be a little report about Jack Path of Portland Trails, recipient of some of last year's Garden Tour proceeds.

Finally it is March.  The Flower Show is over and we met a lot of visitors there, and sold some pre-tour tickets, $15.; $20. day of the tour.  Soon to be announced where you can get your tickets for the May 18th tour.
