AFGC is blessed with excellent officers who work long and hard to complete the various projects they have planned to improve our state federation. Thanks to all our AFGC officers for their outstanding leadership: Judy Kennedy (president), Jennifer Moreland (1st vice-president), Cauleen Autery (2nd vice-president), Recording Secretary (Lenda Sundene), Treasurer (Peggy Ahola), and Asst. Treasurer (Renee Waite). We appreciate your strong leadership and dedication to Arizona’s garden clubs and their members.

We are lucky to have the following AFGC officers also guiding our federation: Karen Lyman (Archivist/Historian), Jeanne Carteux Isbell (Corres. Secretary), and Sharon Davis (Parliamentarian).

Thank you to our District Directors throughout the state who have the important role of leading their district’s clubs and connecting them with the federation’s activities. AFGC District Directors are: Dana Benoit (Central Dist.), Orvalita Hopkins (Alt. Central Dist.) Harriet Jack (Northern Dist.), Betty Flowers (Alt. Northern Dist.), Beth Kirkpatrick (Eastern Dist.), Lydia Reibel (Western Dist.), Sheila Parcel (Southern Dist.), and Paulette Stag (Alt. Southern Dist.).

Working together, our officers and district directors ensure that AFGC is strong and successful and that our garden club members have a rewarding experience being part of AFGC.

Merry Christmas to our AFGC officers and directors!
Merry Christmas to our garden club members throughout the state!
May 2025 be a year filled with wonderful gardening activities and happy fellowship.
