Description:
The Blacksburg Newcomers Club presents their October Meeting on Tuesday, October 10, 2017 at Luther Memorial Lutheran Church in Blacksburg, VA.

October brings those crisp, sparkling, mind-wandering days that dare you to abandon all electronic devices, cease Netflix binging, and step outside into the reality of a New River fall day.

If this sounds tempting, then join the Blacksburg Newcomers on their Fall Field trip to the Hahn Horticulture Garden on the Virginia Tech campus. Water gardens, shade gardens, meadow gardens, and perennial borders dressed in fall colors will please you much more than pinging iPhones, buzzing Androids, or annoying emails.

So note on your paper calendar with a lead pencil that will meet at Luther Memorial as normal at 9:00 am. Around 9:45 am, we will carpool to the garden for a tour and presentation by horticulturist Lisa Lipsey.

If the weather is a bit uncertain, don't forget your rain gear. We will meet inside for a brief presentation and then a short tour outside.

There is no cost for guests attending the meeting. Membership dues are $25.00 a year and include participation in interest groups.

Free babysitting is available for pre-school children ages 6 months and older.

Weather Policy: Meetings will be cancelled if Montgomery County Public Schools have a two hour delay or schools are closed. Please check the Montgomery County Public School weather related announcements on: http://www.mcps.org.

No matter how long you have lived in the area, since birth or you’ve just moved in, the Blacksburg Newcomers’ Club welcomes all.

The Luther Memorial Lutheran Church is located at 600 Prices Fork Road in Blacksburg, VA.
