A wide variety of drinks will be available from the Institute bar. This is a club/charity event. |
We have had another enjoyable year with our demonstrations and events, not least our annual open demonstration where approaching one hundred people were entertained by Kate Russell and Patti Dawson with their take on "Here for Christmas".

We would like to thank Shirley Henderson demonstrating her version of "Around the World in 8o Minutes", everyone seemed to enjoy her displays. Most clubs in the area do not have demonstrators during August, so if your own club is not holding a meeting you are more than welcome to attend ours. The demonstrator is Beverly Artis her event will be titled "Pots of Style". This is a change to our calendar of events. Beverly is well accomplished and will no doubt be equally welcome. The event takes place at Tutbury Institute on Wednesday 10th August at 7.30 PM. £4- Some of our members joined Barton under Needwood Flower Club on their recent visit to Holme Pierrpont Hall, we had a most enjoyable day, there were some wonderful flower displays. |

As we are all sitting writing our reports on a cold wet day thinking is January ever going to come to an end or it stop raining, we do have a lot to look forward to. Spring is only just around the corner, I had my first bunch of daffodils last week, and it's always something to smile about as we walk into the supermarkets and see all the flowers for sale. We know that spring will soon be with us.
Of course the first event we have to look forward to is our demonstration which takes place at The Tutbury Institute commencing 7.30 pm. on Wednesday 10th February. This could be the first and perhaps last event for a number of the demonstrators taking part, chosen from members of our own committee. The display entitled "Anything Goes", may turn out to be just that but will no doubt be a lot of fun. Everyone is welcome to attend, you may be unlucky enough to win one of the displays in the nights raffle!
9th March will see a demonstration by Lynda Stamp entitled "Natures Fantasia" whilst on 13th April we will be holding a workshop.
We would love to see both old and new faces at our club, annual membership is £24.00 to include all workshops and demonstrations at The Institute, or £4.00 payable at the door per event. Visit us at www.tutburyflowerclub.com for more information on our club and events.
