Maui Orchid Society's General Meetings are held on the third Tuesday of every month (except for December) at the Wailuku Community Center, located at 395 Waena Street, Wailuku. 

 

The general meetings begin at 6:30 pm and  the President will provide updates, followed by the guest speaker.

 

The Society also has  Show & Tell  tables as part of its general meetings where members are encouraged to bring their orchids from home.  There are three divisions in the Show & Tell:  Novice, Intermediate, and Advanced (dependent upon the number of times the owner has won the top pick by members).  These orchids are also viewed by the American Orchid Society (AOS) certified judges, to determine whether they qualify for any AOS awards.  Additional AOS judging will be available on Maui at the Haliimaile Annex.  For more information on AOS judging on Maui, please click here.  As a side note, anyone in the orchid community may present a plant for judging, i.e., they do not have to be members of MOS or AOS.  However, there is a price to the exhibitor to process the award with AOS:  $40 for AOS members and $60 for non-members.  The awardee does receive a nice certificate of recognition and the award is published in the AOS' magazine and website.  If interested, membership to the AOS is $81per year which include hard copies of monthly magazines.

​

Sales events, special events, and nursery tours are benefits of membership. Yearly membership is $20 for a single member and $30 for a two-member household.  Membership is free for seniors who are 80 years old and over.  Moreover, new members  receive an orchid just for joining!
