History Club
Third December 1958, the restaurant in a former hotel CROWN WAC was held with the participation of 32 registered members of the constituent meeting of the ring kaktusářů ZO ČOZS. He was elected the first ring committee consisting of:
Chairman: Mr. Pospisil
Vice-Chairman: Paul Feather
Members: F. Koci, A. Reed, MD. F. Eidkum.
In the first two years of activities, meetings were held mostly in the restaurant on the corner with the participation of 15 to 20 members. They were first organized lectures, spring is also a meeting place directly in greenhouses growers.
The first exhibition was held in September 1960, in City Hall Library at the Peace Square. At Wednesday, November 1, 1961 approved a special meeting of members crossing into the United Racing Club RIP and also elected new leadership ring:
President P. Feather (Upper Berkovice)
Vice J. Danda (Roudnice nL)
Managing F. Koci (Lovosice)
The second exhibition, which is already held in the hall SZK Rip, starting from 1962 a unique series that documents the special tabular overview.
The first and last attempt to host the dance in its own direction was made December 8, 1962.
The years 1963 to 1967 can be described as a period of boom. The number of the member base is growing steadily. The quality of educational activities, exhibitions have become a beautiful tradition and tours were progressively more challenging. Also, these components of the regular activities of the club best document summaries in the attached tables.
The years 1970 to 1985:
On 24 January 1969 to announce BC Feather, that for serious medical reasons for resigning as President of the club, which then took over a shorter period of Mr. Emil HURT tomb.
Extremely big milestone in the history of the club, the date January 12, 1970 and resolutions of the annual meeting of members of the same data access as an independent representative organization of the National Front in the Union of Czech kaktusářů based in Brno (PCC). By registering in revenue MRD Litomerice of August 28, 1970 the decision was confirmed. Boom organized the kaktusářství Říp reaches far nepřekonaného peak - in 1970, membership has 72 (!) People, of which 2 / 3 are among the truly active. Before the 10th exhibition of a new committee was elected ZO PCC. Its composition, however, (as well as those followed up to now), we present another place that's connected text on the history of fragmenting the name lists of members.
Separate jubilee exhibition (September 1971) was not particularly well studied, particularly in comparison with the previous 9th exhibition in which 15 members exhibited over 4500 plants and 1200 visitors a general response has been overwhelmingly positive. By the end of 1972 the number dropped to 54 members, 39 of them CACTI extraction Magazine and several others were called "trainees". During the next two years there have been several changes in committee and witnesses can not afford to remember the year 1973 and then a crisis in relations between members, which was caused by wounded vanity, mistrust, dissemination of inaccurate information or neseriózním also acts in the sale of surpluses on the show. One date from this period, however, deserves special attention - it's Monday, the 6th May 1974. That day was the regular membership meeting of the Committee elected to head the current chairman of the Henry BC ARIES (Czech Kopisty 88, 411 55 Terezin), which acts as a fixed star still has great merit in maintaining the regular activities of the club and proven experience proves the truth that " one who wants to have the cacti and succulents (and orchids, bonsai, rabbits, peppers, cucumbers, cauliflower and family of 5 members) always finds enough time. "
From 1969 until 1982, that lasted for 13 years, very good and beneficial cooperation with the leadership of SZK Rip, namely the former director, Mr Francis Mucke. We had the moral and material support in the form of organizational involvement in actions, leasing space for monthly meetings and exhibitions for and that in no case was the relationship one-sided dependence. Therefore, lectures with slide shows are also in our long course, with exhibitions and tours together, we always tried to prepare something new there's not. Only the decrease in membership was still quiet, but steady, and so in 1980 we register have 50 members (42 draws magazine), but three years later, only 39 members and now we are again slightly less ...
Great organizational change was the decision to revoke an individual organization Czech Association of NF kaktusářů, which happened in 1977 and from 1 January 1978 we are part of a large family of gardeners. Even after 10 years can not be said that it adopted a reasonable solution because kaktusářství as specialized "garden" in our business is extremely nice tradition and membership greatly exceeds the number of members of other specialized gardening organizations, such as focusing on lilies, rock gardens, orchids, bonsai etc.
