The PLANT PASS ALONG was a success!
Thank you to everyone that came out to the event. It was a very fun and informative morning! Many plants (and tips about planting) were shared, and the kids had lots of fun activities. Contratulations to our Door Prize winners - 

Richard Barnes - lemon tree (donated by Under the Sun)
Janice Henslee - magnolia tree (donated by Bruce Miller Nursery)

Look for pictures to come soon!

Many neighbors have joined or renewed for 2013. We welcome all neighbors (renters, homeowners, members and non-members) to our activities.

Neighbors who pay the $20 membership fee help us provide activities and newsletters. In 2012 we had several fun activities and in 2013 we will be having more good times!

If you haven’t already done so, support your local neighborhood by renewing your membership or becoming a new member of AHNA. Complete a membership form and mail it in with $20. Or, you may also join via PayPal. Click here for more information about how to join.

Hope to see you soon!

Ann Nash, Membership
