Dahlia Digging and Storage
Join us this evening for a fun and informative class led by
local dahlia experts and enthusiasts from the Whatcom
County Dahlia Society. Throughout tonight's discussion
and presentation, you will learn about digging, dividing
and storing tubers over the winter. There will be demon-
strations including the best tools to use and simple things
you can do in the non-growing season. Come with your
enthusiasm and questions! Pre-registration required.
Battle of the Builders
Teams of two will be given the exact same 100-200
piece Lego™ set to complete their build and win prizes.
Plus, we will sneak fun challenges into competitions so be
prepared! Think you can build a set, deconstruct it, and
build something new with it in record time? While one
teammate is blindfolded? How about building with your
toes? Who knows what your challenges may be!
