Thanks for the post Jim, I just got back from a meeting regarding the upcoming shows! Our theme this year is 'Orchids: A Vanishing World', the focus being on conservation, protecting & preserving natural habitats. We will have special education displays, pictures, etc. Illinois College is sending 2 field reps to be there both days all day & Dr. Zettler is hoping to stop in on Saturday. They just returned from Hawaii & will have sample plants that were used in relocating a population there, they also do work with the Ghost orchid in Fla. so I'm sure you can hear all about that project too!
Come join us!
