We just moved to Geneva, and bought a house with a garden. We've always admired the beautiful water lily ponds in public gardens. We'd love to install a small pond in our own garden. Everything we've read on this web site should make that a reality.
We Googled "ponds, Geneva" and found hundreds of references to this club on the Internet. We signed up with www.Meetup.com so that we could join the club. We look forward to meeting many other club members at the twice-monthly meetings.
We'd appreciate one or more meetings designed for beginners who never created a garden pond. We need to learn all about designing, proper construction materials, and selecting pond fish and water plants hardy enough to survive Geneva winters.
Our tentative plan is to create a kidney-shaped pond about ten feet wide and fifteen feet long, but we'll ask the experts for advice at the club's meetings. We'll also need advice about the best plants and fish to add to our pond.
We can't offer any fish or plants until our pond is built and established, but we'd love to get a few of each to start our collection. Suzanne and Peter must be very generous to offer every member their first fish and plants. Thank you.
Our home in Chambesy is large enough to host a meeting, but we feel we should attend a few meetings in other members' homes before we offer to host our own. We can supply enough refreshments for all who attend.
