Tyler was honored to be chosen as the mid-Atlantic featured garden for National Public Gardens Day, a celebration of gardens and the valuable contributions they make to their communities. A beautiful spring day provided the perfect opportunity for new visitors to discover all that we have to offer via tours, learning stations and fun-filled kids’ activities. Quickly following in June was the Annual Conference of the American Public Gardens Association in Philadelphia. Nearly 700 professionals from public gardens and businesses across the country gathered to learn, share and discover the amazing horticultural heritage of the Delaware Valley. Tyler was honored to play a major supporting role as Rick Colbert served as one of three conference co-leaders to provide leadership and coordination for the local planning committee. This extremely successful event ran for an unprecedented five days, generated record attendance, and enabled our colleagues from across the nation to visit to the numerous outstanding institutions that make our area such a horticultural treasure.

How it was eventually solved will be known when this volume is off the press. The pub­ lishers had for a long time felt that a volume of this nature was greatly needed in the county, as a permanent record of the service rendered by Richland county people during the great war. Other partially complete records of the service men had been compiled; Red Cross and Liberty Loan Campaign records were more or less complete; but no attempt had been made to gather all this informa­ tion into one place, or to make it generally available to the public. The pub­ lishers therefore decided to undertake the task, trusting to the generosity of the public for assistance in seeing it through. We shall be fully repaid for our trouble by the knowledge of the ready assistance rendered us wherever we have sought for it, and the knowledge that we have given to the people of the county a work of value to future generations.
