On Friday, April 26, the Youth committee ― specifically Donna Karanja, Allyn Young, Sarah Olson and Sue Young ― led delighted fourth graders at the Kelly School in West Orange through a workshop in planting succulents and decorating their achievements.
Many thanks to teacher Alicia Lampley who encouraged our green invasion of her class. The students had such a good time that she is setting up the same workshop for the rest of the fourth graders in the school so that they won't be jealous of her students' creations. Our club received a virtual hug from the happy kids.
And for the benefit of Club members who are not too familiar with succulent husbandry, see a very short and illuminating introduction to the topic, below.
