The Orange County Rose Society hosts an annual rose show in either the spring or fall. The OCRS Rose Show returned as an in-person event on October 23, 2021 in the East Room of the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum in Yorba Linda. Many thanks to 2021 Rose Show Chair Tom Cooney and all the volunteers, exhibitors, judges and guests who helped make the show a success. Thanks, too, to the Nixon Presidential Library and Museum for allowing the OCRS to host the show in the elegant and beautiful East Room. We hope to see everyone there in 2022.
