PLACE: St. Anne's Church (Miller Hall), 347 Libal Street, De Pere
TIME: 4:00 to 7:00 pm
TICKETS: Available at the door - Adults $10, Children $5, and Under 2 are Free.
Enjoy an evening meal with your spouse (and bring the kids too). Couples with young families are never able to get out together for Valentine's Day.

St. Anne's will offer a low cost alternative for the dinner and give spouses a chance to appreciate their better half at the same time. Accompanying the dinner will be soft live music and an opportunity for a romantic stay at an area hotel. Romantic gifts will be available for purchase at this event.
Family and friends in memory of Fr. Galaty originally set up the scholarship fund to benefit the children trying to attain degrees in higher education. The fund has given away over $25,000 dollars since it was originally founded. With the extravagant costs of higher education our Green Bay area children need more support than ever to make dreams come true.
Please join us for a relaxing evening and support our children striving to advance their knowledge.
PLEASE CALL St. Anne's Church office at 920-337-9517 or call Jim or Gail Stupka at 920-339-3285 for more information or with any questions.

The Outagamie County Master Gardeners announce their annual Garden Expectations Conference to be held Saturday, March 6, 2010 from 9:00am – 3:30pm at Appleton East High School, 2121 Emmers Drive, Appleton. This year’s theme is “The Nature of Things,” offering practical advice on how to provide an inviting landscape for people and animals alike. Use native plantings to enhance your backyard and help restore a bit of our natural heritage in your corner of the world. Grow that lush lawn you’ve always dreamed of in a more eco-friendly way, and be inspired to sit back and enjoy the lessons along the way. It’s the nature of things!
Keynote presenter, Neil Diboll, Prairie Ecologist with Prairie Nursery in Westfield, WI is recognized internationally as an expert in ecological and natural landscape design and has spent 25 years in research, design, and installation of native plant communities for prairies, wetlands and woodlands. While many consider prairie plants suitable for rural settings, Neil will show how you don’t need acres of land to grow and appreciate native flowers and grasses! Learn to incorporate these beautiful flowers, grasses, trees and shrubs into your landscape no matter how large or small, whether it’s a cottage garden or a formal setting.
Drawing on the characters and gardening wisdom expressed in her novel, Time in a Garden, Appleton native, Mary Agria, will share about how life, like the garden itself, experiences its share of changes and problems that leave us wondering how to cope. The challenges gardeners face every day can teach us a great deal about love and loss and what makes for healthy growth as families and communities.
What would a garden be without the chirping of birds, the buzz of bees or the movement of butterfly wings? It’s these kinds of creatures that bring your garden to life. Tammy Borden, wildlife enthusiast and Master Gardener Volunteer, will help you attract more beneficial wildlife to your urban or rural backyard, and provide tips on how to keep those pesky varmints out.
Kevin Jarek, Outagamie Crops, Soil and Horticulture Agent of the UW Extension, will show how less can be more when it comes to lawn care! Learn how to use a more organic approach and still have a lawn that stands out in the neighborhood as a shining example of what a healthy, environmentally sound lawn should look like.
Conference registration is $30 and includes lunch. The public is welcome to attend. Door prizes, vendors, reference materials and information on the Master Gardener program will be available.
