Garden Club to present Christmas Walk fundraiser By kate Hill Staff Writer
On Friday, Dec. 2, the Cazenovia Garden Club (CGC) will hold a fundraiser sale during the annual Cazenovia Christmas Walk. For over 70 years, the CGC has worked — often behind the scenes — to beautify the community and bring together people with mutual interests in home gardens and civic improvement. During this year’s Christmas Walk, CGC members will be selling festive small table arrangements as well as mug-sized arrangements suitable as presents for teachers or hostess gifts. The members will create the arrangements during a Dec. 1 workshop using a combination of natural greenery such as fir, juniper, cedar, pine, hemlock, boxwood and balsam, and other decorative materials, such as seasonal ribbon, faux berries, dried seed pods, and pinecones. The club will set up the sale on Albany Street prior to the tree lighting to allow passersby to make purchases both before and during the Christmas Walk. “We hope to make a profit of $1,000 to $1,500, which is not earmarked for a specific project but [will be] added to the general funding for all projects,” said

Founded in 1949 and federated in 1960, the club aims to stimulate interest in horticulture, develop skills in the beautification of home and community,
create an awareness of national and local conservation problems, inspire a desire to serve in these areas, and further the goals and objectives of the regional and national organizations to which it belongs. Each year, the club contributes thousands of dollars and
countless volunteer hours to the community by providing flowers, tending gardens, and planting trees throughout the village. In preparation for the holiday season, the CGC provides lighted wreaths for the lampposts throughout the Historic Business District, decorates hayracks and
window boxes, and coordinates with the village to hang garland on storefronts and the Village Fountain. It also donates Christmas gifts to CazCares food pantry and clothing closet. The club, which is a member of the Greater Cazenovia Walk l Page 3

During the free-form event, participants will have the opportunity to decorate a pharaoh’s headdress, create large collarstyle necklaces reminiscent of those worn by wealthy Egyptians, use hieroglyphic stamps, make amulets and a folded pyramid, and get ancient Egyptianthemed temporary tattoos.

The Cazenovia Public Library & Museum (CPL) will recognize the 100th anniversary of the discovery of King Tut’s Tomb with a family-friendly event on Saturday, Nov. 5, from 10:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. Pictured: CPL’s 2,000year-old mummy named Hen. mummy. Youth Services Coordinator Jenna WrightMartin, Museum Educator Julia Shotzberger, and Debora Millson, CPL’s new youth services assistant and assistant museum educator, will be on hand to answer questions and provide information. According to National Geographic, King Tutankhamen — commonly referred to as King Tut today — was born around 1341 B.C.E. and ascended to power when he was just eight or nine years old. The “boy king” ruled for
less than a decade; he died when he was just 18 to 20 years old. Tutankhamen was nearly lost to history until November 1922, when British archaeologist Howard Carter and his crew discovered the pharaoh’s nearly intact tomb in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings. It took Carter and his team almost 10 years to catalog the contents of the tomb, which held more than 5,000 artifacts, including a sarcophagus containing Tutankhamen’s mummy, and a solid gold face Library l Page 15
