The group began the day at Lake Norman, located near Charlotte.  Queen’s Landing was developed as an idea of Jack Williams about 15 years ago. The Catawba Queen is a replica of a Mississippi Riverboat paddle wheeler that the group boarded for a cruise and lunch.

The Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden is one of the jewels in the Queen City’s crown. The Garden sits on 380 acres along the banks of Lake Wylie and was named one of the nation’s 20 Great Gardens in HGTV’s popular book, Flower Gardening
