SUMMARY:Garden Club Hosting Open House to Celebrate Turning 100 Years Old
DESCRIPTION:Garden Club Hosting Open House to Celebrate Turning 100 Years Old\n\n \n\nOn September 30\, 2023 Oak Harbor Garden Club is hosting a community open house in Smith Park to celebrate the club turning 100 years old. The community is invited from 1pm   4pm and there will be displays\, music by local favorite\, Kick Brass\, and a dedication of a plaque to mark 100 years of service\, plus a few more surprises.\n\n \n\nOn October 3\, 1923\, a group of Oak Harbor women organized a civic improvement club.

It started as a Civic\n\nClub which helped get sidewalks built and a library started\, and then funded the library for years. As the\n\nClub transformed to a Garden Club they did many civic improvement projects\, such as spearheading the\n\neffort to get the police station landscaped when it was built in the early 70's\, doing work at the Marina\,\n\nthe Chamber of Commerce\, the entry signs at both ends of Oak Harbor\, and extensive work to beautify\n\nHal Ramaley Park and keep it maintained.\n\n \n\nThe Oak Harbor Garden Club's mission is to develop a beautiful city through loving care of small areas. The Garden Club meets the second Tuesday of each month at 9:00 AM at 1050 SE Ireland Street\, the First United Methodist Church meeting room. Guests are welcome.
