Annual Summer Party

In keeping with tradition, members of the Chester Garden Club convened for a relaxing summer party, about ten days after successfully running another annual Flower Show and Tea.  Diane, Sandy (hostess), Sheila and Brenda are in good spirits despite the damp and windy weather.

As usual with a pot-luck event, conversations seemed to proliferate where party-goers gathered around the food tables.

The anticipated focal point of the day was the opportunity of a ring-side seat on the deck of a house overlooking the first race of Chester Race Week, which is always an exciting scramble by boats seeking advantage of a good start.



Unfortunately, inclement weather meant that most of the gardeners at the party opted to stay indoors and the boats sped past quickly in high winds.

Nevertheless, with plenty of delicious food and wine on hand, and a large crowd of members and guests, the indoor site produced a wonderful party.   (Thanks to Sylvia for the photos)
