EDUCATION PROGRAMS: Each month we have an informative program presented by a guest speaker on some facet of the Orchid world. Our speakers are Orchid Experts that give us valuable tips and tricks. It’s always interesting and informative.
Some of our past guest speakers have included experts such as:
Doug Overstreet
Ned Daniger
George Vasquez
CULTURE SESSIONS: Culture sessions often precede the monthly meetings, offering an opportunity for hands on instruction on the practical aspects of orchid culture.
MEMBER’S PLANT FORUM: Our members are encouraged to exhibit their blooming plants. Outstanding plants are selected for ribbon awards. Each member who brings plants will receive one ticket for the P.O.T. Raffle. A complete set of rules for ribbon judging is available at the meetings.
P.O.T. (Plant Opportunity Table): Plants are generally provided by our guest speakers and by our membership. This is truly a great opportunity to increase your orchid collection at little cost and an opportunity to support the Society. One ticket is given to each member who wears their name badge for the first drawing and one ticket is given to each member who brings plants to display at the Member’s Plant Forum for the second drawing. Proceeds from the P.O.T. help defray our costs for speakers and programs.
OTHER ACTIVITIES:
During the year the Society Members participate in a numbers of other activities such as Orchid Shows, Greenhouse tours, picnics, etc.
