APRIL MEETING -- Special Date/Time/Location

To celebrate the flowering crab apple trees, this month, we're having a picnic meeting at Arie Den Boer Arboretum in Water Works Park on Sunday, April 29th, from 12:30-1:30 pm.  Park near the gazebo (at the arboretum's southern tip) and bring your lunch!  We'll be having a picnic on the grass.  The main topic of discussion will be an informal presentation on the city's master plan of improvements for Water Works Park and Gray's Lake.

If you're ambitious, bring a bicycle and enjoy the bike trails in Water Works afterward.  Or, take a stroll around the arboretum or Gray's Lake for an extra hour of relaxation during your afternoon.

Rain Date: Saturday at 12:30 pm.
Location:
Arie Den Boer Arboretum
Fleur Dr./George Flagg Pkwy
Des Moines, IA 50321

Parking is free within the park. To get to the arboretum from Fleur Dr., turn west on Grays Lake road into the aboretum (located directly across from the north entrance to Gray's Lake Park), then take the second gravel road to the left, until you see the gazebo at the T.  You can park anywhere along the side of the road, so long as you don't obstruct the flow of traffic.
