HISTORY

Our club was established in 1958 by Mrs Lil Nesbitt OAM, who was conducting floral art lessons at her home, for ladies who were supporting the Crippled Children's Association and Spastic Council in their fundraising endeavours. 

To raise additional funds, the Club commenced exhibitions in the Woodville Town Hall which continued until 1995. 

In 1992 an association began with the Rose Society of South Australia and members of the Club decorate the stage area at the twice yearly Rose Shows.

For many years the Club has organised and arranged the fresh flowers on the Nipper and Nimble floats, now one combined float, and the posies and bouquets carried by the Pageant Queen and her attendants, as part of the annual Christmas Pageant held in Adelaide each November.

The club, with a current membership of approximately 40, has been teaching the principles, elements and styles of flower arranging for over 65 years.
