Honoring Ali as Past President

At the last Board Meeting for the 2016 year in late November, we were able to honor Dr. Ali Schwayri with a special paper weight for his many years of service and donation to the club.  One of the founding members of our group, Ali served as president from 1988-1989, 2000-2003, and 2014-2016 for 9-10 years.  Ali looks forward to keeping his garden and being present in the club. He still runs the Roosevelt Island Tree Board as well and is active with saving and advising RIOC for our many Island trees.
