Holiday Party 2008
| On December 21, some hardy residents braved a wind chill of -10 to come to a holiday party at the clubhouse. Kids decorated cookies and adults visited with each other, then livened things up with some Christmas songs.        |
Foot Bridge
| July 2008: Boy Scouts and some willing helpers build a foot bridge over Alverna Creek in the lovely woods of North Willow Farms which form the northern loop of Daubenspeck Community Nature Park.     |

Garden Tour 2008
 Kay Kelly's beautiful garden was the first on the tour. Pavers set off plants below.   Joan Bumpus has added a patio to both her front and back yard. Her good friend Pat has helped with much of the gardening.  A two-level pond adorns the Japanese-inspired garden of Maggie Lewis, and below is her trellis covered with wisteria. Maggie is also a bird watcher and also loves to go birding at Daubenspeck.   Jeanne Mueller uses sections of picket fence to frame a section of her garden.   Famed North Willow gardener Margie Hixson explains to a visitor; on the right are some plants from Margie's annual plant sale.  Martin Radecki poses with his work. Martin and his wife did all the hardscaping themselves. Below is their vegetable garden.   The jaw-dropping patio and garden of Jan Daniels. Below is a fountain, in one of many planted areas.   The Radecki's and Daniels' homes (above) can be seen from the recreation path that goes from Chestnut Court to the North Willow woods.  Hostas and ferns abound in the garden of the Boslers, but it's the lillies their cat loves.
