The Coastal Carolina Camellia Society which meets in the Charleston area is a local society, affiliated with the
American Camellia Society. Email us or follow us on Facebook for information on our upcoming meetings.

The CCCS generally meets from August through April at 2:30 pm, on the 3rd Sunday of each month. In May
there is a club picnic and plant auction. Monthly meetings typically feature an informative program or guest
speaker. Experts are always on hand to answer any questions you might have and we have a fun, social
time while enjoying the snacks our members bring.

Routinely, our club meets at James Island Town Hall at 1122 Dills Bluff Rd., SC 29412, However meetings
are always subject to change, so please sign up for club emails or check our Facebook page for the
current meeting time and location.

In addition to the seasonal monthly meetings, membership can include club trips, garden visits and
projects including our annual judged camellia show, raffles, plant sales, and the plant auction at the May
picnic. Historic camellias, propagated by members are sometimes offered at the picnic.

The Spring Show is normally held on the fourth Saturday in January. Blooms are entered from 7:00 AM to
9:30 AM and there is no entry fee, Club members will be on hand to assist newcomers and we sincerely
encourage everyone to enter.

Gardeners wishing to identify their camellias are encouraged to bring them for identification. If they can be
properly identified and arrive at the show before 9:30 AM, they are eligible for entry. Prizes are awarded to
winning blooms. We hope to see you there!

Located along the Ashley River in Charleston, Middleton Place is a National Historic Landmark, historic home, research center, and historic plantation and stableyards. We focus on the contributions of the Middleton family as well as the enslaved Africans and African Americans who lived and worked here. The stories are a microcosm of United States history.
	Charles Towne Landing State Historic Site - Charleston, South Carolina
