Welcome to the

 

COS annual picnic and mini-auction

Sandy Myhalik and Steve Calderon will hold our annual picnic at their home in Farmington on Sat., July 25th (rain date 26th) beginning at 1:00 pm. We will also hold a mini-auction later that afternoon.

Please RSVP Sandy Myhalik,  myhalik@comcast.net  if you plan to attend and for directions. There will be some spectacular plants to bid on. 

In addition to the auction, Sandy will conduct a tour of her award winning gardens and her orchid growing room. The picnic is potluck. Please bring enough food to share with others. COS will provide cold drinks, water, coffee and tea, utensils and paper goods. Sandy says you are welcome to use her kitchen to warm up a hot dish. Steve will fire up the barbeque grill for you to cook your hot dogs & hamburgers. Their home overlooks a fantastic view of the Farmington Valley and just sitting on their deck is a treat. Join us for a relaxing

Saturday afternoon!
