We hosted the <br /> Magnolia Society convention in March, 1994. We toured our garden, <br /> Greer Gardens, Northwest Garden Nursery, and Hendricks Park. One of <br /> the high points was Hendricks Park. We had people from the eastern <br /> states, England, and South Korea, as well as from the northwest. <br /> Many of the attendees said Hendricks Park was one of the finest <br /> public parks they had seen. <br /> We are also looking forward to hosting the Study Weekend for the <br /> Hardy Plant Group in July, 1996. Hendricks Park will be one of the <br /> 15 gardens open to the participants. <br /> We strongly believe that the connection between Hendricks Park <br /> and the local and national plant groups and the area nurseries be <br /> fostered. To help this cooperation we can really use the fliers <br /> you mentioned. The reprinting of these brochures with maps to the <br /> garden help when we have individuals or groups at the nursery. We <br /> send may customers to the park to show mature specimens of many rare <br /> plants. <br /> We really wish to encourage the further promotion of Hendricks <br /> Park as a tour destination, especially because of the park's beauty. <br /> The park is also very centrally located for tourists to the Eugene - <br /> Springfield area's hotels, motels, restaurants, university, and <br /> shopping areas. <br /> Please let us know how we may help further. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> 1 <br />
