Sparrow Clinton Hospital Auxiliary
The annual spring flower sale held as a fund raiser for Sparrow Clinton Hospital Auxiliary will be a few days late this year because of inclement weather, but according to chair Kim Kellogg, the timing will be ideal for Memorial Day.
“Hopefully, the weather will cooperate and be warm enough that buyers won’t have to cover their plants or bring them indoors at night,” she said.
The sale this year will be Saturday May 21 at Southpoint Mall beginning at 8:00 a.m. and run to 2:00 p.m. or until supplies are exhausted.
Kim Kellogg, center, chair of the Sparrow Clinton Hospital Auxiliary’s Spring Flower Sale, recently met with co-chairs Sharon Hunt, left, and Cindy Knight to lay plans for this year’s event set for Saturday May 21.
As in the past there will be many varieties to choose from, including hanging baskets, fiber baskets, Gerbera Daisy pots, geraniums, impatiens, ferns and wave petunias, to name a few. “Our inventory will have something for everyone,” explained Ms Kellogg, “including plants for sun or shade and beautiful hanging baskets or planters.” She may be reached at 989 292-1647 for information.
Proceeds are designated to hospital and patient benefits. Currently, the Auxiliary is assisting with the purchase of emergency room bedside monitors at an estimated cost of $18,000.
