WELCOME TO 
  
September is 'back to school' month and begins 
several months of educational and fun activities.
African violet growers, of all experience levels, 
will find new skills to learn or familiar subjects to teach.

Don't hesitate to join in the fun: 
by following the lessons on your own 
or as part of the group discussions!
You may join at any time.

      This AV School will be SIMPLE and each step taken one at a time.  We will begin each activity and move slowly. 
      There will be no formal 'sign in' lists such as we have for the plant and leaf projects. 
      You may do as many or as few of the 'assignments' as you want -- although an AV Diploma of Experience will be given to those who complete all the assignments.

Planned Activities include:

• Newbie 'Violet of the Month'
• a School Bingo
• Educational and Informational Articles
• Experiments
• Leaf Swap
• Book Reports
• AV Buddy/Mentor program
• a 'virtual' Field Trip
