Did you know that Padgett Garden, the small garden at the base of the Bridge and Ocean Boulevard, was designed by late members Martha and Perrian Padgett? This poem was read at the dedication.

The next time you are stopped at the bridge take a moment to appreciate the hard work and dedication our former and current members take to care for the gardens and beautify our island. The garden is replanted with annuals each season and perennials as needed, fertilized, mulched, weeded, and watered.
