Beer Garden Party

Hello folks:

As you may already know, I serve as a volunteer at Chatham County Together
in their Graduation Project program. I get so much satisfaction from working
with high school students in accomplishing a quite daunting task for them.
You can see a photo of one of my students with his horse sculpture on the
home page of the CCT website:
http://chathamcountytogether.org/ Chatham County Together is a critically
important resource for our communities.

Accordingly, Carol-Ann and I are holding a fund raising party in our garden
in Fearrington Village on Sunday May 22nd from 2 to 5 PM. Our garden has
been featured in Caroilina Gardener magazine:
http://www.forrestgreenslade.com/ND08_FG.pdf It will be great fun. It will
be a Beer Garden Party. Carolina Brewery has donated one of its wonderful
spring beers. Harris Teeter and several CCT volunteers have donated tasty
German style snacks. Please join us in support of CCT, stroll through our
sculpture garden and gallery, sip some brew and enjoy a good time with
friends.

We are suggesting a donation of at least $15 per person. Checks should be
made payable to Chatham County Together. Please RSVP to
sculptor@forrestgreenslade.com so we can have an estimate of attendance.

I hope to see you at our party,
Forrest
