CHESTERTOWN — The Chestertown Garden Club had its second meeting of the season Oct. 1 at Emmanuel Church. The program, Chestertown Flower Show 2013, was devoted to enhancing members’ floral design abilities.
Members were divided into small groups and designed an informal table selected from six themes: Mums the Word!, Gourd Gracious!, Summer’s Last Hurrah, Autumn Leaves are Falling, Apples Spice, and From the Pumpkin Patch. Members could meet and plan their table arrangements, but tables had to be arranged on the day of the meeting. Judging was done by secret ballots submitted by members of the club in the following categories: best floral design, best overall design, most creative design, and the design that best represents the selected theme.
The individual tabletop designs were used by each group to eat lunch. The exercise helped the club members to enhance their arranging skills and to understand judging parameters at garden shows.
The winners were: best floral design – Brenda Strange, Karen O’Connor and Jan Murphy for Autumn Leaves are Falling; best overall design – Kathy Aquilla, Mackey Dutton and Chris Kirk for Gourd Gracious!; most creative design – Nora Carey, Sandy Griffin and Karin Cowperthwait; and the design that best represents the selected theme – Betsy Ray, Barb Macbeth and Marcia Deiss.
