In case your computer doesn't like the site or vice versa, here's the text from the show page:

The 2006 show will be the 22nd and 23rd of April at Executive Inn.
Set-up is Friday the 21st, with Judging starting Saturday morning the 22nd.
The Show and Sales area are open to the public both Saturday, Noon til 6, and Sunday, 10 til 4.

(The map they link shows it's next to the Louisville airport.)
 
The 2nd orchid picture looks a lot like daffodils, though I know daffodils don't flower that way. What species is it?

Holy Cannoli!! What stunning flowers! That must have been some show to see. I would love to go to an orchid show. I still favor the paphs and phrags but I don't think there is any orchid flower that's not beautiful.

I'll be checking this spring for the cypripedium I found at the park near my house. I'm worried about it because its growing right in the walking path.
