Today I again speak in this House about the wonderful Concord Garden Club in my electorate of Lowe. On Saturday, 24 March 2007, the Concord Garden Club held its annual Autumn Flower, Floral, Art and Vegetable Show. The standard of exhibits was outstanding. My wife, Adriana, and I were delighted to be in attendance. I again record how proud we are of the Concord Garden Club, which has been a very vibrant and active club for more than 50 years.

The members of the Concord Garden Club are truly wonderful environmentalists, and I congratulate President Alan Hancock, Secretary Marj Hogan, past president Mrs Betty Willison, past secretary Ruth Payne, and all the other members of the club who do such a great job to promote and care for our precious environment. Finally, I thank all the ladies from the Concord Ladies Auxiliary who, once again, prepared such a magnificent afternoon tea. Adriana and I look forward to the Concord Garden Club Spring Flower, Floral Art and Vegetable Show later this year. Well done, Concord Garden Club.
