26 persons attended our Clinic in March. MMR Walt Huston brought “deciduous tree makin’s” to Olympia so we all could create a tree to take home.

This “Make N Take” used Azalea bush fall clippings as armatures to which we attached Woodland Scenics material of appropriate colors with Tacky Glue. When cutting the Azalea bush, trim it to suit the affect desired for the landscape. Save all the clippings. Big, small, short or tall – most can be used somewhere. Only after the layout scenery is “done” should we throw away leftover material.

All who wanted made a tree to take home. Great fun for all of us. Thank you, Walt!

April 8th, Friday, is our next meeting. Robert Scott, an extraordinary photographer, will present his show “Nevada Northern in the Winter” at the Thurston County Courthouse, 7 pm. Come join us. Let’s fill up the 100+ chairs in the room!
