We'll be starting a new OB Project the second week of March

Here's an explanation of how they work along with a little history on past projects:

I am looking forward to seeing our previous participants along with lots of new people joining us

First discussion scheduled for our Chat Room Sunday March 9th at 8:00pm EST

We're going to start discussions on March 2 at 8pm EST, rather than March 9th.

The plan is still to be able to place our individual orders by mid-April

Oh good! I am going to be out of the country from 3/8 through 3/12. I didn't want to miss the first chat.

If you can come up with a suggestion for a very small Cym, we'll discuss it

We have no idea what type of orchid will be the winner. Throughout the process, we probably see/suggest/discuss hundreds before choosing the final group. That group is then put into a poll and all participants get one vote for the one they hope wins.
We all get the chosen plant, whether or not it was the one we voted for. It's a little scary but...
if you read through some of the posts regarding project 4, you'll see that many folks were not thrilled about getting the plant...and now they love it and are happy they played through thill the end.

See ya March 2, in the chat room, at 8pm EST for the very first of many many discussions

Hey Sue, The first post says March 9th and your next one says March 2nd for the chatroom. Can you post which one is the right one?

Thanks, kiki

Sorry about that...we changed the date to accomodate a few of our friends.

The correct date is March 2...I've also changed it on our OB calendar

It's now SO CLOSE that it is showing up on the events list at the bottom of the Forums page!!!

Start preparing your lists...and if you can find a web page showing the plant and some information about it, bookmark the link so you can show it to us when we're discussing the project
