Presented by the Wanneroo Orchid Society
The weekend was a great success due to the unstinting work of a large number of members who rallied around to ensure that all went well. There was a great deal of work to do to present the best show we could. I would like to offer my thanks to all the workers who had a hand in our success.
A special thanks to Phil for giving talks and demos, Peter for towing the trailer, Sandy for her work at the Registrars table, Sandy & Bill who manned the door all weekend, all the folks who kept us fed from the kitchen, Alex & Frank at the Pots Table, and all those who just mucked in and helped where help was needed. You know who you are and you have our grateful thanks.
And our everlasting thanks to the staff of the Mater Dei College who were an enormous help.
A big THANK YOU to Chris Wardley of Sunshine Shadehouses, who donated the prize for Grand Champion. Chris makes and repairs shadehouses of all kinds and can be found at sunshine@iinet.net.au phone 9291 7131 or 0407 705 553
