Rossendale Flower Club
About us:
We are a small club of around 25 members, we enjoy and have an interest in learning the art of flower arranging and visiting gardens to pick up new ideas. We would like to welcome any like minded people to join us.
The club is fast approaching its 50th year anniversary and over the years we have been lucky enough to have local and North West/National demonstrators within our own club and some have even entered and won at Chelsea Flower Show.
We have ”hands on workshop-style" nights (every 1st Tuesday) when we follow the lead of a demonstrator. In addition, we have trips to flower festivals, gardens and garden centres. We hold an annual meal around Christmas time, which is always very popular with our members.
Why not come along and see what we do? We meet at Haslingden Cricket Club 7.15pm for 7.30pm start.
February 2010 Our A.G.M. was well attended and Diane from Harrogate Flower Club did some beautiful arrangement for us, which were raffled off (myself having won one). This was the year we had to nominate a new chairman etc and committee. Fortunately the outgoing committee were re-elected with two new members joining the committee. Many thanks to Marj, Norma, and Julia for standing again. As you will see we have an exciting programme for this coming year, and we hope you all enjoy what has been organised. As always we are looking for new members to enjoy our nights with Flowers, so get telling your friends. As we are now nearly halfway through our year we hope you have enjoyed everything.
July 2010 Jacquie Iddon's garden was beautiful and the weather was glorious for once, sorry if you could not make it, she will be at our club on July 6th just bring a colourful vase and some garden foliage and flowers - see you all then and try to bring some friends!
Our 13th of July visit has been arranged and we have booked to go to "The Ridges" which is in Limbrick near Chorley. Price £6 which includes entrance to the garden and some light refreshments. Arrangements with transport will be sorted out so please come and enjoy the evening. Final arrangements will be made at our meeting on Tuesday 6th July when Jacque Iddon will be with us.
