Online Community for our Branch

View of Morro Bay, California
November 2004

The Central California Branch of the Mediterranean Garden Society has formed a new online community on "Yahoo!Groups," to facilitate communication with members of their branch. Our "Yahoo!Group" name is:

"Central CA Mediterranean Garden Society"

This web site will basically function as an "Online bulletin board." It will allow registered members to post messages to the whole group at once, share photos and files, maintain a group calendar, and more. It should prove to be an invaluable tool for planning and promoting the activities within our group. Members may personalize their settings to receive "Individual emails" (all posts), a "Daily Digest" (1 email a day maximum summarizing all posts that day), only posts designated as "Special Notices," or "No Email" (They can still view any messages when desired by visiting the group web site). Membership will be open to any member of the Mediterranean Garden Society. To register (free, and it takes just a few minutes), please follow this link, and click on "Join this Group!"
