The Dykes Medal Winner Game is a powerpoint presentation of Dykes Medal  
Winners.  Each Dykes winner has its own separate slide with a brief  
discussion of the iris, its hybridizer or brief tidbits on the goals of the  
hybridizer at that time.  It is not an essay but it is in short paragraph  form 
which would be good for a brochure.  I think the AIS store front still  has it.  
It should be current up to 2007 or 2008.  
 
That reminds me that I have to add the last four winners to the  game.  The 
game is played similar to Bingo with the Dykes medal winner  pulled 
randomly by the powerpoint presentation.  The game comes with the  cards (in pdf 
format) to play.  It is a good filler at the regional  convention.  I 
orginally scheduled two games.  You can add games  or remove games (10-15 minutes 
long) depending upon whether the schedule is  running fast or slow.  The 
winner gets an iris as a prize.
 
By the way does anyone have a good picture of Paul Black (the iris not the  
man) that I can add to the presentation as well as any interesting   very 
short stories about Tom Johnson (the man not the iris) suitable to go on a  
Dykes Medal slide?

Our club  has a Dykes Medal Winners garden at our local community college.
We are in  the process of designing a brochure which briefly explains the
award. We  would like to include an essay about the changes in iris form and
color  over the years, which can be observed in the Dykes iris. Does anyone
know  of such an article?

Thank you.
