AUTUMN FESTIVAL AND SRGC ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
SATURDAY 9 NOVEMBER 2019
Location: Burnside Hall (Old Scone Church Hall), Burnside, Scone, PH2 6LP.
Note that this is NOT the hall we have used for the last two years, but the one that we used before that. Directions: take the A94 Perth/Coupar Angus road from Perth. The hall is near the David Douglas Memorial, which is well signposted. As you approach Scone take the first left turn into Cross Street, and then an immediate sharp left into Burnside, which takes you to the hall. There is ample parking. The number 7 bus runs from Perth to Scone.
Schedule
When you arrive – tea, coffee, and lots of wonderful cakes
11.00 Three short talks about how the club supports its charitable aims
Jens Nielsen will show highlights of his expedition to China, partly funded by the Rock Garden Club, following in the tracks of Reginald Farrer.
Scott Cook will tell us how a grant from the Diana Aitchison fund has helped him complete a work placement at Gothenburg Botanic Gardens, Sweden. Plus show us around the garden.
Reports on the David Boyd event held in June at Lockerbie and the Inverewe Event held in September.
12.00 Coffee, tea and a glass of wine will be provided; bring the rest of your own lunch (apart from the cake).
13.00 Our Annual General Meeting. Reports of activities, presentation of awards, electing Council members.
14.00 The Clark Memorial Lecture, "Utrecht Alpine Garden’ by Gerard van Buiten. Gerard will give a talk on the general history and overview of the Rock Garden and Peat Beds, at the world-famous Utrecht Botanic Garden, Netherlands.
15.00 More food, tea and coffee, and time to socialise before departing for home.
There will also be:
• the second photographic/art competition of the year
• a non-competitive display of plants
