Hi Everyone,
Happy November everyone! Here is Ed's November 2021 CJOS Newsletter.
We hope everyone is continuing to enjoy the beautiful crisp late autumn weather! We even had some light flurries post-Thanksgiving weekend. Hopefully, everyone has had time to clean their indoor spaces and organize all of their plants that may have been in outdoor spaces over this past late spring/summer/early autumn. Just another reminder that it is also a great time to catch steep discounts from many online orchid vendors (Christmas and New Year Sales)!
December 1st, 2021 is our CJOS Plant Swap Event (in lieu of a 2021 Holiday Party, due to Covid-19 restrictions and attendance). Please bring a bug-free orchid in good condition to swap with fellow CJOS members. This event should be fun and a great chance to swap for a beautiful orchid!
Sadly, as most of you have now been informed, the decision was made to postpone the orchid auction. Due to unforeseen events and busy day-to-day lives, we were unable to meet the original November 2021 deadline for the event. We have not officially decided on a new makeup date, but we will inform all CJOS members when this has been determined.
As of October 2021, CJOS will now hold In-Person and virtual Zoom meetings on a monthly basis! This decision was voted on and decided by the majority of good-standing CJOS members and the CJOS Board. We respect those that may not feel comfortable meeting in person at this time; hence the dual virtual meeting option. Please check the website and your email regularly for continued CJOS updates and Zoom links! We hope everyone is staying safe during this continued COVID-19 Pandemic!
