Vote on the Garden Name (although we have previously voted to keep the name “Panama Park Community Garden” it makes it very difficult to create signs and logos and flyers and letter head.  So we voted and the voting was tied.  Broken by absentee ballots.  The new name is officially  “Common Ground”

Need a volunteer to connect with local High Schools to let them know we can give Community Hours to their students.  How can we register with them so that we are a Community Hour site for them? 

Christy Kennedy has donated a chair and bench for the garden.
