Time sure seems to fly and it is time again for our Annual General Meeting with a side serving of orchids of course.

The meeting will take place on Thursday, 23 February at the Grobler's house in Alkmaar.  Tea and eats will be served at 17h00 and the meeting will start at 17h30.  
How to get there - follow the N4 to Pretoria to Alkmaar.  Pass the Nkomazi fuel station complex on your left and turn left at the Alkmaar/Kwanyoni Lodge turnoff. From there follow the Afri signs to our gate.  You have to pass Kwanyoni Lodge, do NOT turn left before the lodge.

We need to elect some new members to the committee and any volunteers should please contact Nitsi on 084 414 7710 in this regard.

And after the formalities, we will discuss the plant table in some detail.  

Hope to see you all there!!
