LAKE COUNTY – Once again in 2008 the Clear Lake Trowel and Trellis Garden Club wove its magic – specifically, over the holidays, in the form of beautiful holiday wreaths – to support local young people in their schooling.


Each year the club collects fresh greenery, then works for three days at a workshop creating fresh greenery wreaths that are sold to community members.


This money then goes towards scholarships for local students.


At the club's Christmas luncheon, Mary Ann Worth, co-chair of the garden club's wreath making project, reported on and thanked all the workers.


Nora Gerrard, treasurer, reported that enough profit was made so there is enough money to give two $1,000 scholarships again this coming spring.


The club also thanked the community for its support of the effort.
