Leigh Kitcher

Please join us on Thursday, January 21, 2016 beginning with a business meeting at 10:00am.  Our program begins at 11:00am and our speaker is Leigh Kitcher, former NCAGC District III Director and member of Ayr Hill Garden Club.  Leigh will prep talk about our upcomingApril flower show while demonstrating three creative designs. These designs will be silent auctioned at the end of the program.

Our members’ January design challenge this month is a TUBULAR DESIGN – a creative design having dominance of cylindrical components throughout.  This display plus our Horticulture display should be very interesting!  We’ve also got some great items available at our Ways and Means table.

Come see what we’re all about.  Our meetings are held at Little Falls Presbyterian Church, 6025 Little Falls Rd., Arlington, VA 22207 and are always free and open to the public. We do serve a hot lunch after our program and guests are welcome to join us for a nominal fee of $5.00. Please RSVP to [email protected]  Welcome!!

It’s a great pleasure for club members to come and relax together before the busy holidays take over our schedules. This year’s theme was “Holiday Joy” and the floral designs and decorative touches created by our club members were just that – joyful.  Here’s just a few of the designs and happy faces that graced one member’s home.  Enjoy!

Thank you to all our guests who attended and all RSGC members who worked so hard to make our Sixth Annual Holiday Floral Design Event a big success.  It was educational, fun and delicious!  Special thanks also to our sponsors, Andy’s Lawn and Landscape and Blazing Star Gardening.

And a huge round of applause to our talented guest designer – Jo Oliver of Highway to Hill! Her floral designs wow’d us! And big thanks to our own club designer, Renee Bayes!
