The Wagener Garden Club held its monthly meeting on Dec. 6, 2011. A special program titled "Healing Gardens - Gardening for the Soul" was presented by Sandy Randall, Aiken County Master Gardener. The program was very informative and enjoyed by all attending. The planters containing yellow, pink daffodils surrounded by pansies have returned to the business locations throughout the Town of Wagener.

In January, garden club members and members of the FFA of Wagener-Salley High School will assist with planting two red maples at the Listine Courtney Senior Center in memory of Norman Smith.

Thanks to Mary Kelley, club member for the beautiful Christmas Wreaths that she placed at the four entrance signs coming into Wagener. They really enhance our entrance signs with their festive appearance. 

We wish to thank those who stopped by our tables during the Wagener's Hometown Holiday Celebration on December 3rd purchasing one of our hot dogs, a cup of coffee or hot chocolate, as well as some of our baked goods.

Again this year in conjunction with the Town of Wagener, the Wagener Garden Club assisted with a contest for the best Christmas decorations at homes and yards within the town limits of the Town of Wagener. Judging took place after Dec. 15, and the winners will appear in the January issue of the Wagener Monthly and will also be posted on Wagener's digital sign.

The next scheduled meeting of the Wagener Garden Club will be January 3.
