June, 2002 We have worked with the Federated Garden Clubs of MN to get help bringing fresh rose arrangements to libraries (and other public buildings) during the month of June along with information on the ARS and our local club.

The Wescott Library was the recipient of a beautiful Hope For Humanity arrangement. (click on images to see them larger)

February, 2002 TCRC kicked off our celebration of The Year of the Rose by donating 2 copies of Growing Roses in Cold Climates by Jerry Olson to each of the following libraries: Hennepin County, Dakota County, Ramsey County, Minneapolis Public Library and St. Paul Public Libraries. 

Photos were taken at the Hennepin County Southdale Library. One is Amy with the author, Jerry Olson and the second is YOTR Co-chair Kim Loomis with her daughter Amy and Jerry presenting his book to Librarian Mary Anderson. (click on images to see them larger)
