Garve and Lochluichart SWRI

Meeting 27 January President Jennifer Haslem opened the meeting.

There was a lot to discuss as this was the first meeting of the year. 


Plans for the bulb and baking show were made and forms filled out, with some of us persuaded to add an item onto the baking class.  Some of our bulbs are too far ahead (my Amaryllis is in full bloom now) and some not showing signs of life, but will probably be ok on the day.

There were also discussions on the entries for the craft show, an evening out, and fund raising for the federation.

We then  decorated a small parcel each, with help from Jennifer Haslem, before the tea with everyone contributing.

Meeting 24 February The meeting was opened by president Jennifer Haslam. 
Plans were made for collecting and taking the contributions to the bulb and baking show on the 12 March.

A few of us are concerned that the bulbs we have been nurturing over the winter will not perform as well they should after all the care they have been given. 

We decided that we would all contribute baking for our fund raising stall at the Easter fair in Garve hall on April 22.  And forms were filled in for the handcraft show on 15 and 16 April. 

Four of the members had been to see Spirit of the Dance at Eden court, which had been a great experience, with dances from various countries, with quick costume changes and very professional dancing.


Business finished we continued the craft of artificial flower arranging started last month with an arrangement in a gift box.

Every one supplied a raffle prize some quite surprising!
