Welcome New Members!
Visitors are welcome to attend 3
meetings before becoming members. Annual dues are $25 for an
individual member and $30 for two individuals at the same address.
Membership starts in January. Members joining in July pay half of
the annual
dues; memberships for those joining from October through December extend through
the following year.
Members are mainly from Malibu, Pacific
Palisades, Santa Monica, and West Los Angeles, but all are welcome.
What we all have in common is a love of orchids and a desire for
additional knowledge about orchids.
You may join MOS by signing up with Membership Secretary
Rabinder Sekhon at a meeting,
or via mail by downloading the
application form.
As a member you will receive a membership
roster, receive MOS
library
privileges, be able to ask questions at our "beginners' corner," vote
on matters
regarding the Society, and
have the opportunity to serve on the
board of
directors.
Wearing your membership nametag at the monthly
meetings will enable you to
participate in a drawing to be the first to
select an orchid from the raffle table (without a raffle ticket).
Members receive
the informative MOS bulletin monthly, which lists topics for the
next meeting, the plant forum ribbon awards, informative articles, a
calendar of area orchid events, and other
items of interest to orchid lovers.
You will also receive a membership
survey form so that your specific interests and needs can be considered.
Members who volunteer meet and interact with other experienced members, as well
as being awarded, at the end of the year, with a free orchid plant. |
