Those in attendance were members that had direct contact with Ruby with these projects and include Past Presidents Sally Moore and Marcia Richard, Current President Cathy Gallagher, Camille DeVito, and Linda Childs.
Project Chair Gail Schulz held a clean-up day at the Pollinator Garden located at Crofton Library. Members weeded and edged the garden and worked on plant identification.

The Pollinator Garden is a "stepping stone" on the Anne Arundel County Pollinator Pathway.
