Aloha Everyone!
It was nice to see a bunch of new club members at the last meeting! I hope that all of you newbies speak-up and let us know what you would like to learn. What is the most pressing thing you wish to learn about orchid growing? Let us know what speaker topics you would like. We want to be sure that we fulfill your hopes of learning what you want to know about orchids. May 2nd is our election night at the general membership meeting. We will be electing officers and trustees to continue providing as much services and benefits as we can to the membership. Please plan on attending the Installation Banquet on June 23rd (more info in this newsletter) to support your newly elected Board Members. We had a well-attended workshop at the Kaneohe City Mill Garden Event weekend on April 14th. It was also ‘no tax day’ – so we hope you all got a chance to get to City Mill and supported our local Kaneohe business. I purchased a nice group of clippers and garden tools. Appreciation lunch was later that day – and we had many, many awesome blooming plants for the chairpersons and volunteers! SO…. if you want to increase your orchid collection with some outstanding plants…VOLUNTEER at our annual Spring Shows!! See you at the meeting – and I hope you all stayed dry these past few days!! ~ Sheron President Windward Orchid Society |
