Show date for 2006: Saturday June 10th. Macon Mall, 3661 Eisenhower Parkway Officer Scheduled Speakers and Events New Members: B.J. Selph, B.J. & Eddie Achord, Jim & Carol Brittain, Chase Griner, ,Ken Baker, Randy & Dara West Scott & Peggy Jessup, William Ford, Henrietta McIntire,John & Ruby Sullivan Alice, & Steven Atkinson, Blake & Sydney Bozeman (Youth Group) MGHS Club News: During the past few years the MGHS has been very active with various projects. One major project, led by Billy Dick and Tom Johnson at Massee Lane Gardens, was to develop and install a very large and fine daylily garden. MGHS members and growers donated several thousand daylilies, including several hundred different cultivars. This will be one of the largest daylily gardens, open to the public, in the South. MGHS furnished speakers for a four-week daylily Extravaganza in June of 2003, 2004 and 2005 at Massee Lane Gardens. This is a wonderful opportunity to promote daylilies as thousands of visitors from all over the world visit Massee Lane Gardens every year. The gardens are located off of Highway 49 between Fort Valley and Marshallville, Ga. Our speakers for the Christmas gala were Liz and Jeff Salter. We enjoyed their slide presentation of their latest cultivars. Their gorgeous 2006 introductions were the main feature. A “spirited” auction of their beautiful daylilies by Auctioneer Earnest Yearwood was enjoyed by all, and the highest bidders all went home with thinner check books, but smiles on their faces.
