Manchester Garden Club members met October 22 at Zion Parish House to hear Miss Eleanor Broadhead of Salem speak on Swiss Flowers and Festivals. She shared slides of Swiss mountains villages and was introduced by Mrs. Robert L. Higbie. The Civic Beautification Committee plans to allocate funds from last summer’s garden tour to town improvements and considers photographing areas needing beautification. Plans were made for next year’s garden tour set for July 22. The club voted to send $15 to the state Federation of Garden Clubs flower show in Woodstock, where Mrs. Erny led the Ways and Means booth and assisted with staging at Woodstock Inn. The show drew broad participation with the theme Autumn Comes To Vermont and featured extensive exhibits and a holiday marketplace.
