What's New! June 2009

This month's tip: Due to the absentminded webmaster as of late, you're in for a treat! This month we have both the May Tip and the June Tip! Thanks to Bruce Barr for May's tip and to Margaret Anderson for June's tip. The aforementioned webmaster promises to be on top of it next month :-)

North Central District Convention and Rose Show is scheduled for September 11-13, hosted by Minnesota Rose Society. Details to come soon.

NEEDED: VOLUNTEERS FOR WRITING THE TIP OF THE MONTH: In 2009, the tip of the month for this website will be done (hopefully) by volunteers other than myself! I am looking for volunteers for a monthly tip to be on any topic of the writer's choosing. I have May-December open. Anyone wishing to be a writer and volunteer for a monthly tip please email me. Thanks ahead of time!

Please, local society officers who have schedules set for shows, etc. email Yvonne regarding EVENTS for 2009 to be included on this website. Also, any new officer information or contact info etc. please forward them to me. Thanks!

The ARS Needs You!

The American Rose Society has embarked on a national membership campaign and the North Central District Rose Societies are pitching in to help. If you haven't already joined, now is a great time to do it. If you know someone who is interested in roses, a membership to the ARS (as well as a membership to their local society) makes a great holiday gift! Click here for more information and to download the printable signup form.

The American Rose Society has partnered with US Bank to develop a credit card program that rewards the ARS in addition to our members. Each time you use the card, the ARS receives a financial contribution from US Bank.  In addition, the card includes reward benefits for you – with redemption opportunities for gift certificates, merchandise and travel options.  Even if you already have a credit card, you might want this card as a way for you to track your rose related purchases!  The card design features a beautiful red rose.
