December 2022 - WNYIS members met over the 2022 holiday to participate in a friendly holiday centerpiece competition. All centerpieces were judged using the Artistic Design Point Scale. No iris were in bloom at this time, so the creative centerpieces were created using foliage and flowers of the gardener's choice. In addition to this competition, members also brought in donated gifts for teens in-need.
