"board" in this case refers to gsas-board, which is a list for the board of directors. The poster accidentally included a footer from the private list in the public posting. But anyway...

When & where is the upcoming plant auction? Can anyone show up?

Guess there hasn't been an announcement yet:

The annual GSAS Plant Auction is just over two weeks away! It will be held on Tuesday, February 8th, 2005. If it's like previous years, bidding will start at 7:30, and there will be a lot of items to get through, so be there at 7 to preview items.

We're purchasing several hundred dollars of wholesale plants from our friends at African Northwest (which means the plants will be Florida Aquatic Nurseries stock -- a good thing!). ANW is also supplying us with some bogwood. We usually sell a fair amount of member-grown cuttings as well (sometimes can outnumber the "pro-grown" plants). We usually try to give some descriptions of the plants as they are sold, i.e., light requirements and difficulty. Expect the full gamut there too, from common "beginner-friendly" to "wow-I've-heard-of-them-but-never-seem-them-before".

Anyone can show up and big, but you have to be a member to sell. Our usual limit of 20 lots per seller applies. Please arrive early if you're bringing things to sell. We cannot guarantee the auction workers will have time to check in your items once the auction has started.

Also be advised this is at our NEW meeting location at SPU, at the North end of Queen Anne. Directions and map are on our website, www.gsas.org
