We’ve formed agreements with two excellent and professional contractors for our Facilities rentals and Eco tours to Cuba. Allison Delashmit ([email protected]) is our new Facilities Rental Coordinator. The head of our Eco-tours program is Caroline Cotton. Please contact her at [email protected] to hear about and book these wonderful tours. They are the only Key West Botanical Garden Society sanctioned tours to Cuba. Not only are they exciting, but they are of tremendous benefit to the garden. Our Annual meeting was 1/23/2013 and we’ve elected new officers. Stephen Ragusea is Vice President, Vicki Grant is Secretary. Rick Harty will stay on as Treasurer as well. Thanks to those board members willing to step up to these important roles for the society. Looking forward, we have a couple of events planned you won’t want to miss! Migration Mania is on March 16 with Easter egg hunt, migration bird walks, talks and presentations. It’s a great family event! Then, get ready for Hot Havana Nights scheduled for April 13th. This is an evening only event and we are looking forward to dancing the night away, under the stars. The board is also looking forward to this coming year and we have a long laundry list of what we want to see accomplished by next year. If our plans become reality, we will secure funding for our Education Program that will sustain it for several years into the future. We will have a thriving and successful Eco tours program, building on past programs and booking tours throughout the Keys and the Caribbean. We’ll have a full booking of our facilities, generating much needed revenue to support the garden. Organizationally, we’ll have a completed master plan for our buildings and some viable means to fund it. We also plan to have a board of governors, outcome measures for our various programs, and a solid strategic plan to guide our actions. We will be sending out a membership survey in the next couple of weeks for you to give us some guidance! Your feedback will give us much direction on growing the garden. Please help us! If you don’t already, please help by volunteering in your area of expertise. Thanks and again reminders on writing reviews for the garden: Write a review at http://www.tripadvisor.com! Our Annual Fund is also on, you can donate on line or look for the annual fund pledge and letter coming soon to your in-box! As always, thank you for your past support! Go to our website at http://www.kwbgs.org/page.asp?p=donate to make your donation. PAGE 3 A Message from the Executive Director: Misha D. McRAE FEBRUARY 2013 Status of the Garden New Year’s Day is the start of the decathlon… Ready, Set, now Go! Season begins. The Speaker Series started the month with one of the best attended presentations to date about healing uses from plants. A grant to upgrade the Garden’s record keeping initiated planning meetings that was split to train with Allison Delashmit, the new Garden Facility Rental Coordinator. To follow was the kick-off of the ECO Travel Program with Caroline Cotton adding 2 new destinations. Time was allotted for a strategic meetings. Crystal Cruise Lines returned scheduling 2 tours from their ship. Preparations led into the Annual Meeting that was followed by a heartfelt memorial for one of the islands most beloved friends, Leon Williams. 80 close friends and family showed to give their remembrances and respect to this great person. NAS air tower crewmen lent a hand to the Guardian program to plant trees raised in the nursery. We welcomed new volunteer Jeanne Cajuste who brought her experience and connections to make a 4 year effort to work with the Sheriff’s Dept. Trustee Program come to realization. Jeanne and the Trustees have made a commitment to help the Guardian Program twice a month (Join me in thanking Jeanne for making this happen). To top the month off, the rescued Sour Sop tree donated by Susan Kochan and trans-planted in December (with heads bowed) has proved to be a fighter. Leaves sprouted in 2 places just this past week. Hey! I offer a big (20 foot) thank you to all those responsible. Between these events it was time for me to do my work. Returning guests are quick to comment on how beautiful the garden looks. Join me in thanking Guardian Leaders Mary Chandler, Audrey Thompson, Susie Reutling, Betty Desbiens, Constance Miller, Jane Scharer and Kathleen Nowaczyk for their continued efforts to keep the garden groomed and growing. Susie has grown the middle school Companion Program to 20+ students to learn about the garden, work in the nursery and work in the garden. In addition, Susie and Ms. Betty work with them to keep the plants growing so that they can be planted. With the added plants, the wildlife the garden sustains continues to grow. I have counted over 12 species of butterflies during the month of January, and those are just the ones I know. The Broad-Wing Hawk still visits me during my walks around the property. The word of the garden continues to be spread. A number of reports on Trip Advisor show not only the diversity of our guests but their interests as well. AAA has picked the garden up for their new travel guide, Crystal Cruise Lines tells our story to all their passengers and the many talents from Board Member Dave Hubbert and his work on the website brings in a large portion of our guests each week. Great job Dave and thank you. Board Member and Team Leader Carole DeHart’s efforts with the Visitor Center Greeters insure our visitors the best experience. Not to be forgotten, Monica Haskell has added a Saturday morning class to her Yoga Practice. The New Year brings hope and the returning friends that mean so much to this place. Your support is what keeps this garden growing. If you have not received your annual fund contribution notice in your e-mail or mail box, ask me to send you one and donate what you can to our operating account. In addition, a prompt reply to your membership renewal reminders with your pledge of support will help us continue our efforts to preserve and enhance this unique habitat in the Keys. Keep it green and remember, it is always a great day in the garden. Be sure to come out and say hi.

    NewYork. NM Poco Gets Gold By DAVID McGEE "I-Fe told you what!" Ridde Lee Jones moved to the edge of her chair in her room at the Essex House, her blond hair disheveled, her disposition ruffled, as dis- positions tend to be in Manhattan on rainy Mondays. At the early hour it was a tossup as to who was sleepier, the reporter or his sub- ject, but a seemingly innocuous remark related to Jones about how a record retailer had compared her to Joni Mitchell set the artist abuzz. "I'd like to meet whoever said that to you," she says sternly, her tone suggesting that she can do more than sing and write. Like punch. Hard. With her fists. "I would say," she continues, "that anyone who says I'm like someone else who's out there is somebody who ought to be in the retail record business. Joni Mitchell and I have absolutely nothing in common, except that we both have big mouths and long, blond hair. She writes introspective diaries and puts them to music. MCA recording artists Poco were honored with a gold record for their album I write songs. And vocally I'm a jazz singer and Joni Mitchell's a folk "Legend," during their recent engagement at the Roxy. Pictured at the Roxy festivities singer."

  • College Debaters Take High Honors
    VOLUME 96, NUMBERCAMPUS 33 ALLEGHENY COLLEGE, MEADVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA FRIDAY, JANUARY 12, 1973 Sunday afternoon Touring company to perform As You Like It The Oxford and Cambridge Shakespeare Company, in their fifth season of American university touring, will present As You Like It by William Shakespeare, at Allegheny on Sunday, January 14. The popular romantic comedy will be staged in the Campus Center auditorium at 2:30 p.m. Writing As You Like It around 1599 to please his large and diversified audience, Shakespeare developed the fashionable myths that rural living is superior to city dwelling, and lovers always fall in love at first sight and become miraculously eloquent about it. Taking the plot from the novel Rosaly-nde by Thomas Lodge, published in 1590 Shakespeare's story is much swifter and clearer for he takes it much less seriously than Lodge did. As the play opens, Duke Frederick has usurped the dukedom of his elder brother, Duke Senior, who is living in exile in the Forest of Arden. Frederick's daughter, Celia, and his brother's daughter, Rosalind, childhood friends, are living at Frederick's court along with Sir Rowland de Boys' sons, Oliver and Orlando. Following a quarrel between Oliver and Orlando, Orlando, who has fallen in love with Rosalind, has to flee for his life. Rosalind is also banished by Duke Frederick, Celia follows her, and all join Duke Senior in the Forest Arden. It is in the Forest that the main business of Rosie Kerslake as Rosalind, Andrew Whiffin as Jaques de Bols, Peter Wight as Oliver, and Sophie Cox as Celia are members of the Oxford the play, flirtations and mocking Cambridge Shakespeare Company that will present "As You Like It" in the Campus Center Auditorium at 2:30 on January 14.
