PAGE C - PLA1NDEALER - FRIDAY, DECEMB IE1*30. 1983 Neighbors Ring wood News: COMBINED WORSHIP SERVICES SET Holiday highlights to .XT' Jan. 8 at Botanic Gardens Christmas trees, poinsettias, unique ornaments from many lands and a giant spruce tree are all part of the current "Christmas Everywhere" holiday display at the Chicago Botanic Garden. The exhibit is open to the public every day, through Jan. 8, from 9 a.m. until sunset. Red, white and pink poin­ settias in a variety of sizes and shapes from hanging baskets to tree-like standards are displayed. They were grown in the Garden's production greenhouse during the summer and fall to reach their peak in blossom performance at this time of year. The highlight of the exhibit is a 40-foot tall spruce tree decorated by the glow of thousands of lights. Twenty-eight smaller trees were decorated by local garden clubs and 4-H groups to depict various regions and countries of the world. There is no admission charge to visit the Holiday Exhibit at the Education Center or the 300 landscaped acres of gardens and lagoons at the Chicago Botanic Garden. A parking fee is collected at the entrance on Lake-Cook road, just east of Edens Highway. The Botanic Garden is owned by the Forest Preserve District of Cook County and is open every day from 8 a.m. until sunset. Food service and daily luncheons are available. A combined worship service for the Greenwood-Ringwood parishes will be held in the Greenwood United Methodist church on New Year's Day at 10:30 a.m. May 1984 be a blessed and happy year for all!
