Our Society encourages our members to bring in their orchids. Many of our members have some outstanding specimens. At our monthly meetings we offer ribbon judging. We have a great team of judges, some are AOS certified. At times, we have over 50 orchids to be judged. Three and four tables just full of blooms. What a sight to see! Even our beginners have a chance to show what they can do. Its so rewarding and we have a lot of fun. Each month we post the blue ribbon winners on the web site.
