Website: Michael Stephens Thurs. December 7th 2017 Meeting Our annual Christmas Dinner and 2018 election. The time is 6:30 p.m. at the Trinity Presbyterian Church. 10200 Shelbyville Rd. President s Message: Happy Thanksgiving Everyone. Hopefully your gardens are cleaned up and prepared for winter. Nelson and I spotted a family of 8 to 10 deer roaming past our garden last week. The birds are devouring the seed in the feeders as quickly as we can fill them. I am not looking forward to the cold months ahead, but will endure as long as the heavy snowfall and ice are minimal. Although days spent outdoors may be dwindling, I look forward to the holiday season. I love gathering with family and friends to celebrate and enjoy our moments together. I look forward to our holiday meeting on December 7th at 6:30 pm. We will be holding election of new officers for the upcoming year. Please come and help us celebrate. The club will supply ham, so bring your favorite sides or desserts. Hope to see you at the meeting. For those that will not be able to join, have a wonderful holiday season. I am excited to see what next year brings! Thanks Becky
Louisville Area Daylily Society October 19, 2017 Minutes The October meeting of the Louisville Area Daylily Society was held October 19, 2017 at Trinity Presbyterian Church, Middletown, Kentucky. We began the evening by enjoying some social time and sampling a variety of food treats prepared by our members. President Ellen Carrithers announced during the past month that she will need to step down from her role due to some personal reasons, so Vice President Becky Scarboro called the meeting to order at approximately 7:30 p.m. She welcomed all of the members to the meeting and we also had a returning guest who was brought by Marie Seaman. Vice President Scarboro indicated that the Minutes from the August meeting were included in the Newsletter and no one had any corrections or changes. Deb Monbeck moved that the Minutes be approved and Sally Fensterer seconded the motion. Treasurer Andrea King said that the Treasurer s Report was emailed out to members the day before. Donna Willett pointed out a correction
which needed to be made to the maturity date of a Certificate of Deposit, which will be done. Deb Monbeck moved that the Treasurer report be approved with that correction, and the motion was seconded by Sally Fensterer. Vice President Scarboro announced that our Holiday meeting will be held Thursday December 7 th at Trinity Presbyterian Church and will start at 6:30 p.m. The Daylily Society will provide ham and members are asked to provide the side dishes. As has been the case the past few years, the December 7 th Holiday meeting will replace the regular November and December meetings. Treasurer Andrea King discussed Officer Nominations for next year. With Ellen stepping down, an ad hoc committee met and contacted several members to ask about their willingness to take Officer roles. She indicated that Linda Luck had indicated a willingness to be President, Becky Scarboro agreed to remain Vice President, Marie Seaman was willing to take the role of Secretary, and Andrea was willing to remain in her position as Treasurer. We will plan to have formal nominations at the December Holiday meeting and nominations from the floor are welcome and encouraged. Officers will be sworn in at the January meeting. David Kirchhoff announced that the Mid-Winter Symposium will be held in Chattanooga, TN in February 2018, the weekend after the Super Bowl. It will run Friday through Sunday. Vice President Scarboro introduced our speaker for the day, our own member, Rich Rosen. Rich visits a variety of beautiful gardens every year, which include daylily
gardens as well as non-daylily gardens. He showed a presentation of some of the highlights from his 2017 trips. He started the show with photos from Austin, TX, where he resided prior to moving to KY a few years ago, followed by beautiful gardens and flowers from Chattanooga, TN, Norfolk, VA, where the 2017 National AHS Convention was held, to Richmond, VA, Lexington, KY and he ended with shots from David Kirchhoff and Mort Morss Daylily World in Lawrenceburg, KY. We thoroughly enjoyed the variety of photos Rich captured and stories he shared from his 2017 travels. Thank you, Rich! Following a much abbreviated raffle, the meeting adjourned at approximately 8:30 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Linda Luck, Secretary Hospitality: Dec 7 th is our Xmas dinner, LADS will be supplying the ham and we are asking the members to bring a side dish or dessert. We are looking forward to seeing everyone.
