She is Editor of Home and Country Rose Garden, the news publication of the Federated Women's Institute of Ontario. She is also the Rose Program man- ager. ROSE stands for Rural Ontario Sharing Education. She assured us any branch, even small ones, can host a Rose event. Any edu- cational topic is good and invite other branches and the public. The themes for the next two years are "Get Involved" and "Stay Involved." It makes things happen and keeps us older people young at heart and interested.
