We have another member speaker this month, Dennis Olivas will help us learn "How to Prepare Your Plants for a Show". Given that we have a show coming up in a couple of months, this is a very timely topic for our society. Dennis is a great speaker and everyone from novices to experts can benefit from his talk.

We will also have our Show & Tell tables where members bring in their blooming orchids for everyone to enjoy. Come early (the doors open at 6:00PM) to check out the orchids and talk to the growers about them. They can give you tips on how to grow them and other orchids in our area. You can also check them out at the break in the meeting.

We have refreshments available at each meeting. After our speaker, we take a break and have a quick snack and/or drink. This also gives you a chance to take a look at the Show & Tell and raffle tables. After refreshments, we do a brief talk about some of the orchids on the Show & Tell tables and then hold our monthly raffle. Tickets are available at the meeting and there's a good chance that you'll go home with a new orchid.

The meeting is open to the public; you need not be a member to attend. For more information about our meetings and the society, check out our website at https://www.sacramentoorchids.org/.
