“I congratulate all the exhibitors and prize winners on a job well done and as always the event was well organised and attended.
“I was especially pleased to meet with 10-year-old Chloe Clydesdale who attends Edenderry Primary School. Chloe won the Pedan Cup with her excellent arrangement of flowers in cup cakes and well done to the pupils and staff at Donard School who picked up a number of excellent awards.
“I was delighted to meet up again with many of the members who recently received medals in recognition of their long service - their rewards are richly deserved. I wish the society and its members continued success in their future and hope that, like their flowers, the society continues to grow and flourish.”
