How To Care For Orchids: A Noob Friendly Guide on Caring For Orchids Orchids are so beautiful and exotic looking that every single serious house maker with a green thumb would love to have these to boast of. Then again, planting, growing and taking care of these flowers isn’t that easy. At least, that is what I have heard from other people who tried doing it.

So when I decided I wanted to have my very own orchid collection, I studied everything I could about it so that I would succeed in this feat. It was true. It was a bit of a challenge. But now, my friends think that I am some sort of guru on how to take care for orchids. If you are thinking about doing this too, you might want to read on. It might be of some help to you.

Going for the Green!: An Insider's Guide to Raising Money With Charity Golf Golf tournaments and fundraising auctions have proven to be two of the highest grossing special events. Sure, they take loads of work, but when receipts total $10,000, $25,000, $100,000 or more, it's easy to forget the hours put in. If you want to try your hand at either of these events, now's the time to form your exploratory committee. And there's no better way to equip them than with one of these books: Going for the Green! An Insider's Guide to Raising Money with Charity Golf, by Tom King, and Everything You Need to Know to Raise Money (and Have Fun) with a Charity Auction, by Robert Baird. In easily digestible prose, both books walk you from Step A to Step Z, and both include appendices with all the sample forms and checklists you'll need (e.g. job descriptions, committee agendas, budget worksheets, timelines, and more). And there's a bonus: you can read either of these books in the time it takes to play the back nine. Even less if you're a real duffer.

Everything You Need to Know to Raise Money (And Have Fun) With a Charity Auction: An Insider's Guide to the Ins, Outs, Ups and Downs of a Profitable Event In refreshingly clear language, Robert Baird walks you sequentially through the steps you need to follow to carry off a rousingly successful golf tournament.

From the first chapter, Is a Charity Auction Right for You, to the last, The Big Night, Baird securely holds your hand to make sure you know what to do at every juncture. And as you would expect, other chapters focus on setting a budget, developing your auction catalog, the check-in and checkout processes, and how you can raise additional revenue while the auction is in progress.

But Baird doesn t stop there. He wants to absolutely, positively assure your success. So he offers a 54-page appendix that provides samples of every single thing you need. There s not space to list everything here, but a sampling of the 22 appendix items includes: 11 checklists for everything from the room setup to the sound system to cleanup; four pages of gift ideas; a sample financial statement; a sample invitation, and a sample check-in sheet to use as guests arrive.
