We had a fantastic day with Michael Bowyer guiding us through the opportunities which NAFAS offers us for training to be Judges, Demonstrators, Teachers and Speakers. 32 members attended and everyone entered into the exercises. We saw the talent of our members in their floral arrangements just using 5 flowers. We learned what the judges are looking for and impressed with our plant identification knowledge. We were very thankful to the 3 members who gave us terrific “of the cuff” demonstrations. The JDE&S committee were thrilled that a number of members indicated their interest in going on to do further training.

These pictures show the members designs, members judging exhibits and the 3 demonstration pieces.
