Margaret Malson, garden member and frequent visitor was in the garden this morning and took some great shots of the birds.

Friday, May 8, 2009 HEALTH AND HARMONY DAY IN THE PARK
On May 16th Clark Gardens teamed up with Palo Pinto General Hospital to host a day of Health and Harmony. Celebrating the tenth annual National Women's Health week the day was suppose to kick off with a 5 K walk. The Gods had another idea so we started with a much needed rain. Not to be deterred though we adjusted the schedule and had a great day. Thanks to all the speakers. The committee from PPGH did an amazing job and Clark Gardens looks forward to hosting the event next year. For more information contact Carolyn Holt at 940.328.6219 or cholt@ppgh.com. Mark your calendars now for next year's event: Saturday, May 15th.
