Ø      You must be present at the holiday party to claim your orchid.
 
**Pecking Order (why you should try to attend as many meetings as possible):

 Members with 12 meetings choose first.  Next, members with 11 meetings, then 10, and so forth.  When all members have chosen their orchid, the “Perfect Attendees” will again get to choose their second orchid.
