the local newspaper. We try to have several trips a year &
also visit other members growing houses, where there are
usually some re potting and demonstrations going on. We have a
News Letter that goes to all members a week or 2 before meetings.

Lakes Entrance, Paynesville, but we cover an area from Churchill in the
West to Merimbula In the East
We run two very successful shows a year:

November. As the hall is on the Omeo Hwy we have a lot of

retire . We cordially welcome any-one with a love of Orchids.
