LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Each month Clear Lake Trowel and Trellis Garden Club Chairman Jo Jameson presents a garden therapy program for the clients at the Adult Respite Program at St. John's Lutheran church in Clearlake and also at the First Lutheran Church in Lucerne.
Jameson gathers containers, flowers, greenery and decorations for the clients, with the help of the volunteer workers, to create a flower arrangement for them to take home.
The clients enjoy this activity. And this is one of the ways that the garden club shares with our community.
Garden Club members Jo Douville and Claire Grieve helped gather dried plant materials and pines cones to make small wreaths for a table decoration.
The North Lake Garden Club meets at noon on the third Tuesday of the month, September through May, at the Scotts Valley Women's Club House, 2298 Hendricks Road, Lakeport.
Members, guests and all interested are most welcome. President Linda Waterstraat, 707-245-4731, invites interested gardeners to join the group.
Clear Lake Trowel & Trellis Garden Club is a member of Mendo-Lake District, California Garden Club Inc., Pacific Region and National Garden Clubs Inc.

The meeting will begin at 7 p.m. at the Lakeport Yacht Club, 15 Fifth St. in Lakeport,
Parker will give a presentation on “12,000 years of Clear Lake Prehistory,” using pictures and artifacts to conduct a 12,000-year ride with the first people to make Clear Lake their home.
His talk, based on 20 years of research, will cover the timing and means of their arrival, explore environmental changes, and discuss the ways these changes affected the culture, technology and population of the native peoples of the Clear Lake basin.
A graduate of Sonoma State University with advanced degrees from UC Davis and UCLA, Dr. Parker played an instrumental role in the establishment of Anderson Marsh State Historic Park, taught archaeology at Mendocino and Yuba Community Colleges, and served as a Clearlake Planning Commissioner.
More recently, he took the lead in establishing the eligibility of Rattlesnake Island for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places.
Dr. Parker's presentations are always both informative and engaging. His last appearance at a Lake Group meeting drew a standing room only crowd, so it would be a good idea to arrive early to get a good seat.
The meeting is free and the public is invited.
