Our 11th orchid show Oct 19-20 at the Elks Hall 801, 33rd Ave Cedar Rapids was a great success. Pictured here is our EIOS display which received the Show Trophy and a prestigious Silver Certificate from the AOS judges and was deemed the 'People's Choice' exhibit by attendees. More information will be in the December newsletter. Thanks to all that attended and contributed plants.
The Eastern Iowa Orchid Society (EIOS), formerly the Iowa City Orchid Society, is as our logo states “A small group of people with a big love of growing orchids”. Members come from all around eastern Iowa. We meet at the Shueyville Church, Shueyville, Iowa.
The church is located 1 mile EAST of Exit 10 (Swisher-Shueyville) off interstate 380. Our meetings begin with a social time at 6:30 pm; followed by the official meeting and an educational program at 7:00 pm. Meetings are free and open to anyone interested in orchids! Our club displays orchids at regional orchid shows and participates in American Orchid Society orchid judging. Meetings include educational programs on beginning orchid growing, discussion about various types of orchids, and orchid conservation. Check out our brief video!
Our newsletters highlight activities of the society. They contain photos of member's orchids, educational material, and summary of meeting activities. Newsletters will now be published only quarterly.
Our next meeting will be November 7th, 2024 at the Shueyville Church, 6:30 social and 7:pm program. We will review our completed Orchid Show, 'Orchids Are A Scream' Oct 19-20, 2024 at the Elks Club Hall, 801 33rd Ave. SW, Cedar Rapids and have a discussion about basic orchid culture and growing tips from some of our more experienced growers. We welcome several new members and any new guests to attend.
Our December meeting on Dec. 5th will be our holiday party with a potluck dinner (society provides the Chicken) and all 2024 paid members will be able to select a gift orchid to take home.
