Notice - Special General Meeting
A special general meeting of members is to be held at 1.30 pm on 26 August 2025, immediately before the commencement of the Annual General Meeting on that day.
The Treasurer has given a notice of motion to amend our constitution. A vote of members by secret ballot will be conducted to decide whether to alter our constitution.
A complete amendment of our constitution is proposed. The amendment proposal is to adopt the model rules as provided for incorporated associations registered in Queensland under the Associations Incorporation Act 1981.

Our meetings are being well attended and we have welcomed many new members in recent months. Our New Growers meetings are very interesting and informative with lots of helpful advice. Our Cultural meetings frequently feature guest speakers who also on occasion bring quality plants and seedings for sale.
All our meetings finish with a cuppa and members are free to socialise and discuss the many orchids and foliage that is displayed by members at each meeting.
Grants & Sponsorship
We have recently been the recipients of grants from the Gaming Community Benefit Fund to replace our Solar system and from Busy Fingers here on the Island to replace our failing air-conditioning. Work on these two projects has been carried and hall users are reaping the benefits. Our thanks to all concerned in the application and delivery of these applications.
