Are you interested in receiving the Bulletin by email INSTEAD of by ‘snail mail’?  If so, please email Jim Gomes at jim.gomes@att.net.  When I receive your email, I will no longer send a copy through the mail, but send a copy directly to your email address.  That way you will have fewer papers to throw away.

Membership Message

WELCOME 

Please welcome new member Yolanda Roybal. We had 35 in attendance and 1 guest.

 

There are other resources for information on orchids other than SGVOH and the Society Library.  Check these out: 

I have been a member of the American Orchid Society for a number of years, and I just discovered that they have much information on-line about growing orchids, including all the articles from past Orchid Magazines!!!  If you are a member, you can simply type in the topic that you wish information about (like pests, or brassia) and the list of articles will pop up – no need to go rummaging through your back issues trying to find out where in the world that great article went! 

If you have a DSL web connection and an AOS member-ship, you are set to discover answers to those orchid questions that have been bothering you.
 

Enjoy having some refreshments?   Bring some and receive a free ticket for a special drawing for the first plant from the POT.  The goodies you bring do not have to be sweet! 

 

We can all help with the clean-up after the meeting!

 

Did you know. . . ? You can check out a listing of the Society’s extensive Library of reference books, magazines, and videos on pages 16-22 of our Roster.  The best time to check out materials is before the main meeting begins at 8 PM.
