District X Board members and Presidents gave their reports, some sharing good ideas for programs for future meetings. The Trash to Treasure contest entries were judged. The designers were to choose a famous masterpiece work of art and recreate it using only recycled, reused, or repurposed materials. The first-place winner was Corry Grant of the Pleasant Hills Garden Club, second place was Janice Yeaton, of Valley Garden Club and third place was Linda Shefcheck of Town & Country Garden Club. The first place winning entry will be taken to the 2022 GCFP Convention to be held April 3 -5, in Malvern, PA, to be judged against the other ten Districts.
