While the situation changes daily, our values remain constant and our top priority is the health and welfare of our members.
This is to notify you that the Colorado Water Garden Society has chosen to cancel its meeting to be held at the Denver Botanic Gardens on Thursday, March 19th and our educational Seminar to be held at The Hudson Gardens and Event Center on Saturday, March 21st.

We are waiting to see if the closures at Denver Botanic Gardens will continue past March.

Thank you for your understanding and patience during this challenging time.
