Flower show

We signed up about 1500 new Friends of Rocky Point at the RI Flower Show, February 18-21. We had a table there thanks to the generosity of the Rhode Island Nursery and Landscape Association and Ken Quaranto. And thanks to volunteers Clyde Bennett, Dawn Almon, Kandee Deck, Carol Mann, Maggie Murphy and Betty Garrison. Together with all Board members, they maintained a presence at our table throughout the show, talking with the many people from RI and all over southern New England who are keenly interested in the fate of this historic and scenic site.

We are just getting started, but thanks to the Flower Show we now have over 1800 signed on as Friends of Rocky Point, many contributing to our fund, over $3000. Over 1200 are fans on our Facebook page.
