The first annual Ridge Top Orchid Swap will be held on August 23rd at the home of Reggie Wright in Boaz, Alabama. The address is 675 Overlook Rd. Boaz. The event should start around 9:00-10:00am, but we expect people to be coming and going throughout the day. There will be an auction of orchids with a part of the proceeds going to whatever society the donator chooses. Venders / visitors will be able to sell, trade, buy, auction……………whatever. We want this to be a fun and casual opportunity for people to get together, and just do an orchid thing! I am currently aware of at least 4 orchid societies that will be represented: Huntsville, Birmingham, Anniston, Nashville. If you have any specific questions regarding the event, you can e-mail me at gandsgh@blomand.net or PM me. I believe the auction will begin around noon or so. This is a bring your own food and drink scenario, and No alcoholic beverages will be allowed on the premises. I hope to see and meet many new people there!

I know, I remember. We will be back next year as well, barring incident. That was an incredible experience. What a smorgasboard! Hot though, really hot
