Our first meeting of the year was our AGM, Reports were given by our Chairman, Outgoing President and Treasurer.
Presentation of President badge to Sue by Carol outgoing President
Trophies were handed to the members who had gained the most points for the competitions last year. Novice - Rosemary. Intermediate - Hannah. Advanced - Leoni.
Pat Woodward has been a member of our club for 50 years and was presented with her 50yr badge. Congratulations Pat on a great achievement.
Following the AGM six members entertained us arranging flowers to music. The idea came when some of our committee attended an evening presentation during the NAFAS National show in Gloucester last year.
The members were given the same flowers and foliage and had just under 4 minutes to create their designs - a bit like Ready Steady Arrange.
As the music started the atmosphere in the hall was full of anticipation from both the arrangers and the audience.
It was great fun enjoyed by arrangers and members. Thank you to our volunteers for taking part to make such an enjoyable evening.
Louise - Lois - Linda went first followed by Julie - Hannah & Stuart.
We also welcomed two new members.
