Meeting Canceled!

I know there is nothing easy for any of us about what is currently happening. There is much confusion and the situation and information related to the Coronavirus Pandemic seems to constantly change. The Pandemic will unfortunately affect each one of us, some more than others, even if we are all fortunate enough to not be exposed, and the results of exposure to this virus are too great to ignore. Therefore, with an abundance of caution, the South Florida Orchid Society Board of Directors have voted to cancel our March 18th 2020 members meeting.

Cancelling our March 2020 monthly meeting will enable each one of us to limit our potential of community exposure to the Novel Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) and hopefully help to limit it’s spread. Because this is a new disease, according to the experts, none of us have had a chance to develop an immunity to it, and there is currently no approved vaccine or antiviral (like what is available for Influenza A & B).

Going forward we will carefully evaluate the situation and make adjustments as necessary. Hopefully we will be able to hold future meetings as scheduled.

Everyone, please stay safe, be well and if you are able to give assistance to someone in need at this time, try to do so.

With concern and caring,

Chris Alger, President
South Florida Orchid Society
