Rosenelle is Retiring From JCMGA

Rosenelle Florencechild has decided to retire from JCMGA engagements after being a long-time active member. As many of you know, Rosenelle always stepped up when the Speakers Bureau received a request for a speaker in her area of expertise. She has been a welcome presenter at most of the Rogue Valley’s Garden Clubs, JCMGA Speakers Bureau, OLLI Gardening classes and a presenter for Winter Dreams Summer Gardens. and has been an asset to the Rose Society.

Currently, Rosenelle will be reducing her speaking engagements to begin spending more time enjoying what life brings her.

She has a large archive of classes and presentations that she has developed over the many years she has been a Master Gardener. She does not want that information and knowledge lost. She has kindly offered to give these presentations to anyone who would like to work with her to make these presentations their own. This is an extremely generous offer. It would be a wonderful jump start for some of our recent additions to JCMGA who have expressed the desire to continue with JCMGA’s mission of spreading gardening information to the community via the Speakers Bureau.

I have sent an invitation to those who might be interested in becoming speakers to give them a head start working on presentations. If you have not received that invitation, contact me (Colet), and I will add your name to the list (coletallen1@gmail.com).

We wish Rosenelle an incredibly happy and well-earned retirement and hope she will stop by occasionally and let us know what she is up to. Thank you Rosenelle for your many hours of service and your outstanding contribution to JCMGA’s mission over the years.

Happy Retirement!
