Our chapter presented a workshop at the local All Saints School as part of their Japanese cultural program. June Matsuoka and Kozue Knowles and Carol Marchette presented the program for 48 children ( in two groups) from the second and seventh grades.

The children worked together, as a team, one from the 7th grade and one from the 2nd grade as big brothers or sisters.

We used spray painted bottles as vases and used roses and various kinds of greenery. Each child took his arrangement home.
