Last night the Club Chairman, Moira Davidson welcomed our demonstrator for the evening Mr Steve Ludlum from Broughty Ferry. Steve’s title for the demonstration was

 "From me to You at Christmas".

Steve entertained us with gorgeous flowers and foliage and inspirational ideas for containers - bought at bargain prices - to complete his beautiful arrangements. Janice McGeechan gave a well deserved vote of thanks after which the raffle was drawn, followed by a vist to the school dining room where everyone enjoyed drinks, shortbread, mince pies and Christmas tray bake, provided by the committee.

Our next meeting will be held in Carrick Opportunities Building, Henrietta Street, Girvan at 7pm on Wednesday 28th January 2026. The demonstrator will be 

Jo Boggan from Cupar with “The Fife Pilgrim Way”.

The Club would like to thank everyone for their support and wish all members and friends a happy Christmas and a good New Year.

The members and friends were treated to exceptional "Seasonal Splendours" with Kathleen Doggett. All the various Autumn colours we are seeing around us just now all appeared in Kates wonderful arrangements. Kate gave us some hints on how to glycerine and dry leaves and branches which featured in some of her arrangements. All the arrangements were in containers which fully complemented the colours of the plant material. After the demonstration the raffle was drawn and 6 arrangements were off to their new homes, happy ladies all round! Tea and cakes finished off the evening.

Our next night is our Christmas event. Wednesday 19th November in Girvan Academy theatre at 7pm sees Steve Ludlum from Broughty Ferry demonstrating "From me to you at Christmas" tickets are £10 and includes refreshments which are available from The Pet Store in Girvan or by phoning the secretary on 01465 712445. All welcome.

Our new season began with a demonstration from Karelia Scott Daniels from Largs. Her title was "Flowers from the Opera" and it was clear that Karelia had a lifelong love of Operas. Each of her arrangements depicted one of her favourite Operas some we had heard of and some not so well known. Each arrangement was accompanied by a small clip of music from each of the Operas despite a few technical issues! Karelia also told us of her extensive travels around the world.

Members were fore warned that the Christmas demonstration would have a change of date this year- in Girvan Academy theatre on Wednesday 19th Nov. Tickets will be available on our October evening and after that from Girvan Pet Store Dalrymple Street.

On our next night we will have Kathleen Dogget from Mussleburgh whose title will be Seasonal Splendour. Wednesday 23rd Oct in Carrick Buildings, Girvan at 7pm. All welcome.

 Our final night of the year was a coffee and entertainment evening with the Maybole Concert Party who gave us a great programme of singing, dancing and some joke telling. A well attended night was rounded off with a delicious supper and a great raffle.

Our new season starts on Wed 24th September in the Carrick Buildings. Look forward to seeing you all then. All welcome.

The club AGM was held before our final demonstration for this session. Moira, club chair gave her annual report followed by a favourable treasurers report. She went on to thank Edna as secretary for all her work and thanks also went to the rest of the committee for their help throughout the year.

Our demonstrator for the evening was Karen from Flowers by Karen Kilmarnock who gave a a very inspiring demonstration showing us how to "think outside the box" a little. We had 5 wonderful arrangements using wonderful plant material and flowers which were all raffled at the end of the evening with 6 ladies going home very happy. 

Our final night 25th June is a coffee evening with entertainment from the Maybole concert party. Tickets are £5 and available from Girvan Pet Store. Another good evening is in store for you all.

The evening ended with a welcome cup of tea and of course cakes!

Our April meeting was a Spring basket practical night. 24 members attended and everyone produced a beautiful arrangement and each one different. These nights are always a good mix of chat and arranging at the same time and enjoyed by all.

The club held their first meeting of 2025 in Carrick Buildings. Some of our own members did a couple of demonstrations and some members made arrangements especially for the night. Some of the arrangements were themed as follows, "Songs of Rabbie Burns", "Springtime" and "Puppy in a basket".

A very pleasant night was enjoyed by all, followed by the raffle and a welcome cuppa and cake!.

Our next meeting will be in the same venue on Wednesday 26th February which will be a Daisy Drive.
