I guess people in south Florida may not need to have displays at each of the
gazillion shows being put on every year, but in places like Georgia and
Alabama where there are only a couple orchid shows in the state each year I
can't imagine doing them without the displays. Our society puts in displays
at a few other shows 2-6 hours away so that those societies will reciprocate
at our annual show. Florida probably has counties with more orchid
societies than we have in the entire state.

It is 8 hours from Denver to the Next society that does a show. We
are trying to push the Boulder, Fort Collins and Colorado Springs OS
into shows so we can get one closer than Omaha, Salt Lake or Santa Fe.

It is hard to participate when the next show is in the next state.
