through contact with other orchid lovers in the general public. Please volunteer!!! The more people we have helping, the more the work gets spread out and makes it easier on all of us!!!
• Denny mentioned that Patti Quinnelly brought the members 2018 Show Plant Raffle tickets. Please pick yours up so we do not have to mail them to you?
• Jack Knuese talked about plant preparation for the 2018 Show
New Business:
• We wanted to let all the members know, we have not had an increase in our annual dues for at least 12 years. The Board has voted to increase 2018 dues by $5 for singles and $5 for families. We will now allow us to except dues payment via PayPal.com starting in 2018.
• Invite Laurie to come up and explain the 2018 Invoice process for dues ▪ All current single and family SOS members (who haven’t already paid for 2018) will receive an
email with an attached invoice for their 2018 dues. ▪ Note: The email is sent by our accounting system. The FROM will read:
[email protected] ▪ Members may remit by mailing a copy of their invoice with their check to Sarasota Orchid
Society, PO Box 19895, Sarasota, FL 34276 or just click on the invoice and pay with a credit card or your bank check
▪ Members may still pay by cash or check at a meeting or the show, but PLEASE bring a copy of the invoice with you so that membership doesn’t have to write a manual receipt. Our goal is to make this process both efficient and error free!

2018 SOS Exhibit
In order to have plants in our display they must be prepared. A few basic hints are as follows: 1. Remove all dead or dying leaves. Also trim off any dead leaf tips. 2. Remove all sheathing on plants that have sheathing. I use a spray bottle of water and saturate the sheathing and then scrub with an old toothbrush. 3. Wash your plant leaves. I use carbonated water and a soft towel. It also helps to finish with a product like leaf shine. 4. Stake the flowers if needed to give their best view. Also stake any unruly parts of the plant that don't look good.
Setup Friday, Jan. 5, 2018 @ 9:00 AM
Tear down Sunday, Jan. 7, 2018 @ 5:00 PM
Assist in setting up and tearing down the orchid display, put on and take off pot

---------------------------------------------------------------------Silent Auction Guidelines:
We will limit the total number of plants to 4 or 5 per month. By the 20th of the month, prior to the upcoming meeting, a member will email a request to Denny Pavlock ([email protected]) with the number of plants they wish to bring. Include the name of the plant, the approximate number of pseudo bulbs, size of the pot, basket or mount or that it is a bare root. If you have a jpeg picture of the flower, please include with your request.
If you do not have pic, SOS will provide one, if plant is not blooming
Plants must be clean with no scale, thrips, etc. If desired, specify the minimum price you will accept for each plant. If desired, specify an “eBay type Buy-It-Now” amount for each plant so that a member may instantly purchase the plant.
Note: The plant will then immediately be removed from the Silent Auction Table
21
To confirm your inclusion in the Silent Auction, Denny will send
you, the member, a Silent Auction Form.
The seller will receive 75% and the SOS will receive 25% of the
sale’s price.
Member will receive the total amount of the sale and is
responsible for returning 25% (cash or check) plus the Silent
Auction Form to the SOS Treasurer at the conclusion of the
meeting.
