**Jenna's Childrens Garden Launch - July 7th 2013**

Hello Friends and Family,

It is my pleasure to announce that the Children's Garden at the Markham Museum will officially be launched Sunday, July 7th. Thanks to the Friends of Markham and the Markham museum, as well as EDA Collaborative Inc who have pulled together their resources to make Jenna's dream come true.

Come out and celebrate to commemorate this children's garden to Jenna's vision of community, sharing this memorable event by seeing the garden come to life, in serving children and adults alike. The children's garden will include native plants and flowers attracting birds and beautiful butterflies in symbol of Jenna's transformation. This event will include planting flowers, painting bird houses, speeches, refreshments and snacks. We look forward to sharing this memorable moment with you who all made this possible through your support and donations.

Jenna has envisioned children learning the valuable lesson of sowing and reaping through gardening. Jenna wants us to learn how to build a garden and understand that it is a part of nature and a habit that we can adopt for better living by appreciating its beauty. There are countless benefits to gardening that the Markham Museum will be dedicated to educating children in the years to come.  We are still accepting donations to contribute to the garden's maintenance and upkeep the beautiful plants.

Volunteers are welcome. We will have an initial planting of the garden in the beginning of June, therefore we will send a further update to let you know when you can volunteer and contribute to the garden.


Stay tuned with updates progressing to the official launch date of July 7th.We are grateful to finally see Jenna's dream come true and to share it with you.

Please come out and celebrate.
We sincerely thank you and look forward to see you there.
