Garden Club Names Lynn Baker an Honorary Member for the 2020-21 Season

If you’ve explored our recently-launched blog page, you’ve noticed Lynn Baker’s name as a contributor.  That’s a bit of an understatement since Lynn has taken us from “what’s the difference between a blog and a website” to creating and publishing this web blog. 

In researching how to create a web presence, we also began inquiries around the community and connected with Lynn who authors blogs for his homeowners’ association and the Seabrook genealogy group.  He enthusiastically agreed to work with us and voila!

There were many steps in getting this far and we greatly benefited from Lynn’s patience, encouragement, and expertise.  With his guidance, preliminary design layout and content overview were developed for discussion among Club Officers.  After fine tuning we were ready to launch.

These are still early days, but we now have a web presence.  To express our appreciation to Lynn, today we have made him one of us with an honorary membership.  Without giving away too much right now, you’ll have an opportunity to meet Lynn as we advance into this club season, so stay tuned.  In the meantime, we welcome Lynn to our club!
