Dear Editor,
On behalf of Gilroy Rotary, I would like to extend a big thank you to the community for their support this year during our annual Gilroy Rotary Flower Sale.
It was wonderful to see the large crowd of people when we opened the doors at 8am. All morning long, the greenhouse was busy with gardeners picking out their favorite plants.
I would also like to thank the 80-plus Rotarians who volunteered their time and energy for this event ‘especially the sub-committee chairs, Richardo Espinoza, David Cox, Georga Garfink, Kirsten Carr, Gregg Giusiana and Jeff Orth. David Cox provided his tireless energy to help make this event as enjoyable and painless as possible. He deserves a special pat on the back and a job well done! I would also like to thank the members of the Gilroy High School Rotary Interact Club who helped customers load their purchases into their cars and trucks.
A very special thanks to the staff at Goldsmith Seeds – Alecia Troy, Tina McElroy, Wendy Sanford, Keysha Weintz for their hard work in putting the greenhouse together and filling it with the best plants to be found. Joel Goldsmith lead this team, and without the generosity of the Goldsmith family this event would not be possible.
I would also like to thank the staff of The Dispatch for the great articles and awesome photographs of the pre-events as well as the sale itself. The reporting of the activities helped us get the word out to the community so more people could enjoy the event
Again, a big thank you to the community for supporting the largest Gilroy Rotary fund raising event.
Craig Gartman, Chairman 2005 Gilroy Rotary Flower Sale Committee
