Event Details
DescriptionOn February 23-26, 2012, the San Francisco Orchid Society’s 60th annual Pacific Orchid Exposition will coincide with the 75th anniversary of the Golden Gate Bridge.
The event opens on Thursday, February 23th with the highly anticipated Gala Benefit Preview night, which offers wine tasting from some of the Bay Area’s premiere wineries. The evening includes live music, delicious hors d’oeuvres, and a fabulous silent auction.
The Pacific Orchid Exposition is the largest orchid show in the country and is aptly named for the extraordinary, lush displays of organic beauty that are showcased every year. The event boasts more than 150,000 orchid flowers from all over the world and offers educational exhibits from local, national and international orchid growers.
Each day, docent tours and cultivation tips are given to visitors as they peruse the chromatic wonderland of orchids. Professional and amateur growers, as well as orchid societies, will be displaying their unique orchids and rare hybrids, allowing any nature lover the chance to purchase a one-of-a-kind treasure.

You can control who has access to your events, venues and calendars. Items can be public, private or semi-private.
Public
Events, venues and calendars marked Public can be viewed by any Eventful user.
Private
Private events, venues & calendars are viewable only by you or Eventful users you specifically grant access to. They are not viewable by the general Eventful user base. You may, however, permit Eventful users who are marked as friends the right to view your event.
Events, venues, calendars and groups that are private but shareable are also known as semi-private. That is, they are not searchable in Eventful but anyone you share the URL with can view it. This allows you to keep events, venues, calendars and groups out of the general search and still be able to share them with friends, family and contacts without requiring them to log in.
ICAL (short for iCalendar) is a standard calendar format that allows you to transfer events from one calendar to another via an .ics file format. An .ics file can have a single event or a list of events. You can download the .ics file and import it into your calendar for a snapshot of the data or you can subscribe and let your calendar program update the event data in your calendar automatically.
CSV

You can import a list of events into Microsoft Outlook, Yahoo! Calendar, and other tools by using this CSV file.
