30 April 2024To all my friends at Clophill & District Flower Club - April NewsletterWe had a great evening at the Club in April with an excellent demonstration by Louisa Rigden. I was so pleased that lots of members brought a Spring design to create a fantastic display and lots of interest. As there was so much variety it would have been difficult to choose a personal favourite. It is good to keep up our skills. On 2 May we have an Open Evening with one of our favourite demonstrators – Lee Berrill, who wants us to ‘Remember When…’ Tickets are still available from Gillian. It is advisable to reserve a ticket in advance either through Committee Members or through the Contact tab on this site. There will be no Charity Table as it is always a busy evening but Karen is bringing lots of plants for sale. We will be holding a Plant Stall at the Village Fete on 11 May in aid of our charity for MND Association. If you have any plants, seedlings or cuttings that you are willing to donate we would be very grateful and you can bring them to the May meeting, deliver them to a committee member or to the Church on the day. **Flower Arranging Classes - Designs for Summer** During this 4-week course you will celebrate the beautiful flowers and foliage that grow in summer. Learn the knowledge and skills needed to make beautiful designs that last. What will we cover?
