GCA has asked that every garden club in the country submit a needlepoint ornament to GCA Headquarters for use on their trees and wreaths during the month of December when headquarters is decorated for the holidays. This is a wonderful way for all GCA clubs to share in celebrating the holidays at Headquarters. Below is a photo of the beautiful rhododendron ornamnet made by KGC member Susan Maier.
