The Flower Festival again this year (28th) was a great success with over 70 displays. The theme this year was “In The Beginning....” |

For us, the "beginning" was in 1980 and this was our 28th Flower Festival, titled "In The Beginning......", depicting the creation of some things used daily. We're so happy that this year's festival went so well. In addition to over a hundred stunning flower arrangements this year, there were many stalls including books, Trash & Treasure, jewellery and preserves, hanging baskets and plants. Various refreshments were consumed and a huge raffle taken place within the church. We are grateful to all who created the floral arrangements to depict this year's theme. Our thanks once again go to all who donated money, flowers, time and talent, and for everyone who worked so hard to make sure that this year's festival was a success We're so glad you all could come along and see us, our Flower Festival and our lovely church and grounds. We look forward to meeting you all again next year ......Flower Festival Committee |
