Fiesta time is almost here!

Prepare to go "South of the Border" with,food, music and FLOWERS!

Wendel McCorkle has an exiting panel of designers to inform and inspire us .

The Friday evening show features Tom  Simmons, AIFD of Teleflora with his

program on party work.  Saturday highlights a wedding program featuring

Cory Lousert, AIFD from Bloomnet.  On Sunday Deborah DeLaFlor, AIFD, PFCI

will feature everyday work with Pizazz!


There will be an Arkansas Master Florists graduation on Saturday night at the

President’s Banquet.  Graduating these master florists makes our industry stronger. 

A dance follows the President’s Banquet, so be sure to practice your salsa moves

and bring your dancing shoes. 


My appreciation to everyone for all the effort put forth for your Arkansas Florists

Association. 


Remember to support our vendors because they are supporting the association.


Do you know a fellow florist who does not attend?  Tell them about the convention

and urge them attend and join the association.


Positive,encouraging words are more attractive than tired worn out excuses!

We can only be as strong as our weakest link.


See you in Hot Springs 14,15,16 and 17th—Buenos Dias!
