The MGHF Centennial Guild, a chapter of MGHF, held a clean-up party at the Wellness Garden at Mason General Hospital on Nov. 11, 2020. Guild members pruned, raked and weeded the garden, which the Centennial Guild established in 2003. Members also planted 160 daffodils, which should bloom beautifully in the spring.
