Chair Ann Blue highlighted Waterstraat’s many contributions to the club.

Blue presented Waterstraat with a certificate, which was the 52nd contribution to the Mendocino National Forest Penny Pines Project. At each meeting members contribute toward the fund.

Penny Pines was established in 1941 by the San Francisco Sportswomen’s Association. CLTTGC became a supporter in 1990.

In 1964 the National Forest Service requested that each club, donating on a regular basis to Penny Pines, sign a cooperative agreement form, which we keep in our files & it was updated in 2007. A short version of the agreement follows.

For a contribution of $68 the Forest Service agrees to plant approximately 350 seedlings on a little less than one acre in a Penny Pines Plantation located in a California National Forest, of your choice, that is under multiple use management.

The Forest Service provides protection from fire, insects, and other hazards. The Forest Service marks the plantation with a standard forest service sign, listing the name of each club that has contributed and the individuals in memory or honored.

Anyone interested in supporting this program may do so, or get further information, by contacting Ann Blue at 707-263-5854.

Clear Lake Trowel & Trellis Garden Club is a member of Mendo-Lake District, California Garden Club Inc., Pacific Region and National Garden Clubs Inc.

Ann Blue is the Clear Lake Trowel & Trellis Garden Club Penny Pines chair.
