Fun/Fundraising Trip to Wasco Rose Festival
The Contra Costra Rose Society will be having their "Fun Fund Raiser" this Sept. 5 and 6 (a week after Labor Day weekend). We are personally inviting you to join us in visiting the Wasco Rose Festival. This area has 9 different rose growers - they make up 55% of all rose bushes sold in the United States. We will be having a special tour with our own guide to most of these growing fields.
Please see the attached link below on this page and in Links tab for detailed application and flyer. We will have a special pick up for the group in Walnut Creek and in Pleasanton. Help us make this a success. It will be fun for all - you are welcome to invite your friends and family members. They do not need to be members of any rose society. All they need is a love of roses and an adventurous spirit to join us.
Really, for many of us this may be the only vacation we will have this year. So, boy, are we going to have a good time. There are a few seats left and we have a deadline of July 10th for people to sign up.
Reserve your space today!
Any questions - just call me or e-mail me.
