After the January 21, 2010 meeting, the Judges Council meets at 10am, the fourth Thursday in September, January, April and July.  We bring a sack lunch and review the schedule for the upcoming District Flower Show.  Updates of rules for judging are noted in our judges handbooks and studied.  Business is conducted, unusual plants shared and new design concepts explored.  Meeting reminders are sent by the president.  We are an affiliate club, since all our members also belong to other Chuckanut District garden clubs of the Federation.
