The Garden Club of Brookfield holds its general meetings on the third Thursday of each month at 10:00 am.
The format of a typical general meeting includes a welcome by our President, a program or presentation by a member or a visiting speaker, judging of artistic and horticultural exhibits from our members, and a business meeting. Refreshments are served by a team of rotating hostesses.
Unless otherwise indicated, the general public is welcome to attend the program/presentation portion of our general meetings.
Occasionally, the club will sponsor a “field trip” for members in lieu of an on-site general meeting.
The Board of Directors meets once a month in advance of our general meetings.
Please check this site regularly for updates about our meetings.
