It was a great July meeting. I would like to thank everyone who
came. We were given some great tips on basic orchid growing by our speaker Scot Mitamura. We would also like to thank the members who helped plan, set up and clean up our meetings, as well as those who have been bringing refreshments! A special thank you to Sheron Harwood for setting up a hands‐on repotting orchids experience for our new members and for arranging the viewing of rare orchid books at the UH Manoa Hamilton Library. We had another successful Ewa Orchid Show. We won 2nd place and garnered 7 awards, thanks to our Display Chairperson, Susan Lim and our WOS members who came out to help. The last orchid show of the year will be in October and hosted by the Honolulu Orchid Society. Ariel Harwood has volunteered to be our Display Chairperson. We could really use your help with setting up the display, bringing blooming orchids, and clean up after the show. I won’t be at the August meeting, so I ask you to please support our VP Karen Kim, who will be running the meeting. Finally, our membership survey produced 6 members who will take charge of the refreshments….Yippee! Aloha, Craig Nakahara WOS President |
