WHAT’S APP GROUP
For convenience of communication, we have a Garden Club What’s App group, I know that many members use this phone app. If you would like to be added to this group, put your name and mobile number on the sign-up sheet.
This will be for Garden Club Members and can be used for the following:
- Checking on meeting times and speakers
- Asking Garden Questions that other members will be able to answer
- Leaving feedback about meetings or speakers
