Dear Orchid Friends:
The Orchid Society of Greater Kansas City invites you to participate in our upcoming orchid show, February 10-12, 2012. The orchid show will be held in conjunction with the Kansas City Metropolitan Lawn & Garden Show, Kansas City’s premier consumer show dedicated to the green industry. Each year over 30,000 consumers attend the show to shop for the latest products and services for their gardens and outdoor lifestyles. The Metropolitan Lawn & Garden Show sponsors plan to highlight the orchid show as a special feature. We are delighted to be a part of this exciting event, and we hope you can join us.
The orchid show and the Metropolitan Lawn & Garden Show will be open to the public from 10:00 AM – 9:00 PM on Friday and Saturday, and from 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM on Sunday. Show set-up will begin at 8:00 AM on Thursday, February 9. We encourage all exhibitors to complete their exhibit set-up on Thursday if possible. However, orchid exhibits may be set-up during the day on Friday if necessary. Ribbon and American Orchid Society judging will be conducted on Saturday morning.
The orchid show will be held at The American Royal Center, 1701 American Royal Court, Kansas City, MO 64102. Free parking is available during set-up on Thursday and break-down on Sunday, and a 3-day parking pass ($15) may be purchased for use during the show.
