PRESIDENTS' MESSAGE:

Forest Hill had two wonderful parties in March—the Lunar New Year party and the St. Patrick’s Day party. The Forest Hill Association’s Lunar New Year party generated over 200 guests this year and was described as “fabulous.” Our own St. Patrick’s day party was also well attended and people commented that it was “so much fun.” Our thanks to Dottie McHugh and her committee for a well planned event.

The April 21st general meeting will be hosted by Eva Monroe and will include a lecture and Power Point presentation by a docent from the de Young Museum. This promises to be a very enjoyable afternoon. You are encouraged to bring a guest. THE PLANT CART WILL BE ON THE PATIO FOR YOUR DONATIONS OF CUTTINGS AND PLANTS.

On Friday, April 25th, Sima Talai will host a Middle Eastern style dinner for MOM’S AGAINST POVERTY, a volunteer-based, non-profit charity.
