FROME Floral Art Society celebrated its Sapphire Anniversary last month, first formed in 1953, existing as one of the oldest remaining flower clubs.
The society reports, “We recently celebrated our blue sapphire anniversary at Mells Barn with a demonstration by Coral Gardiner titled, ‘Sapphire Celebration’. The Vote of Thank was given by Jo Jacobs NAFAS Associate of Honour and the celebration cake was cut by Sheila House, president and former president Daphne Mortlock, this was then followed by members and guests enjoying an excellent afternoon tea.
“On display were albums showing events in which we have taken part in over the years and display boards showing events and successes the club and individuals have taken part in during the past year, including the RHS Malvern Spring Festival.”
“We enjoyed every minute of the celebration and have had a lot of positive feedback on both the event and the food. This celebration was many months in the planning, so a big well done and thank you to everyone who played a part in our ‘Day to Remember’.
