Happy 2020 everyone! Our next meeting is Feb 19th at the library at 6:30pm. Our speaker Julie Coleman will do a talk about "Caring for your garden tools" Hope to see lots of bloomers there.
On the 4th of February the officers of the bloomers met at the First Seacoast Bank to change over treasurer from Coleen Smead to Margery Shepard. Coleen has been treasurer for the entire time the Bloomers has existed, so for 13 years. Thank you so very much Coleen for all you do for the bloomers. Margery Shepard will take over the position, and we welcome you as an officer of the bloomers. JoAnn Pearson is President, Lydia Culpp is vice president, Cindi Harrington - secretary.
