EIOS AWARDS

The Eastern Iowa Orchid Society enjoys the friendly rivalry of orchid competition at regional orchid shows. Several of our displays have received Best of Class and Show Trophies (ST) for the best display in a show. We have received two prestigious Silver Certificates (SC) from the American Orchid Society (AOS) awarded for excellence in exhibiting orchids at a show. Several club members have also received AOS awards for their individual orchids judged either at orchid shows or at the Chicago Judging Center monthly judgings. Two members of our club are AOS judges. These are all AOS awards - more details at aos.org
