The Vines Volunteers are a dedicated group composed of mostly GCMGA members who work at the park every Tuesday. On Saturday morning, August 8th, 2015, the group hosted their quarterly event with a public walk through the Asian Gardens led by Jeff Hicks and Dick Kennedy.  Dick talked about the history of Asian gardening and both guys explained the architecture and planning of the garden with it’s many different plants.  Visitors enjoyed the variety of Japanese maples, the pond, rocks and moss and learned about the other plants within this garden in Vines.  Many visitors stayed to stroll through the entire Vines Park.
