Wellington Garden Club will hold its October meeting on Monday, October 3, 2022 at 9:30 a.m. at the
Wellington Community Center, 12150 Forest Hill Blvd., Wellington. The Meeting will feature a
presentation by Kent Anderson, award-winning filmmaker, pilot and Eagle Scout, who has traveled

presentation will illustrate the importance of preserving Florida’s natural springs that are crucial to
Florida’s water supply, ecology and inhabitants.

abroad. He is a founding member of Project Paradise, a group of native Floridians who are passionate
about protecting Florida’s environment and telling Florida’s stories through the arts. The goal of
Project Paradise is to advocate for conservation efforts through impactful and inspired story telling as
evidenced by its newly-released documentary film, The Water State that will be screened at the
