Our January meeting was cancelled due to the heavy downpour that day, and we must have all been smiling. Even as we hope for more rain, hopefully our first meeting of the new year will be on Saturday February 15.

Guest speaker member Kevin Rose, president of Woodburn and our club judge, will share his experience on soft-cane dendrobiums and flasking. This will be a fine opportunity to learn more about the world of orchids.

Plants are benched by 1pm for the judging, then the meeting begins at 1.30pm at the Presbyterian Church Hall, Church Street Maclean.

Lucky door and raffle prizes are included, plus afternoon tea.
