Rainbow Garden Club

Great Falls

President: Kathy Austin, 761-0206


We meet the second Thursday of each month, September through May. The members enjoy a buffet luncheon at Colleen's Restaurant, 1601 2nd Avenue North at 12:30pm. The meetings include programs on horticulture, birds, floral design and conservation. If you are interested in joining us for a meeting, please call Bonnie Gardner, 761-6437, or Sharon Mashburn, 452-5071, by the Tuesday preceding the meeting. You will be most welcome!

Some of our activities include planting annuals and perennials around the county courthouse, helping the MSDB students plant annuals and bulbs in their Sensory Garden and other activities for the students, and planting a tree or trees for Arbor Day. We fund a scholarship for a horticulture student each year and hold a style show each fall to help fund these activities. A bus tour in June or July to interesting places in the area is always fun.

We are a friendly group of over 80 members and we invite you to join us sometime soon.
