The 1st Annual New England Orchid celebration

Hello Orchidians and friends!

The clock is ticking! The 1st Annual New England Orchid celebration
will be here before you know it! If you haven't already registered
for the June 26 event, please do so as soon as possible to help us
plan. The absolute last day for registrations is June 21, but you
don't have to wait for the last minute. Earlier registration will
assist us in our planning: We want to be sure we have enough food
for everyone, for one thing!

You can register online at:

Don't miss out on this chance to meet Hanuman and Ton, take in a
series of demonstrations, and an evening of fun, good company, and
good food! The three registration options are $50 for the full-day,
$25 for demos only, or $35 for the BBQ only.

We'd also like to extend an invitation to Orchidians to send their
postcards and brochures for distribution at the event. Those
attending may send up to 100 pieces at no charge, while those not
attending may send the same amount for a $10 fee. For more
information, e-mail .

We're also still seeking donations for the Silent Auction, especially
donations of tools, equipment, and jewelry-making supplies. If you
have an item you'd like to contribute to the Silent Auction, you can
visit the donor page at
