The Calendar committee should consist of a chairman appointed by the AIS president and a minimum of three other members, one of whom is a member of the AIS Board (officer or director) and one of whom is the Manager of the AIS Storefront. Additional committee members may be added at the discretion of the committee chair.

The calendars must be in the hands of the AIS Storefront no later than March 1st of any given year. (AIS Storefront manager has many places he must send the front image of the calendar to in the month of December.)

> 11. Scenic photos, garden photos, natural setting or field photos shall be considered per calendar issue but not to be overly used. (Garden pictures often have other flowers as well as irises. Companion plantings are of great interest to a lot of gardeners. As long as pictures are predominantly about Irises they should be acceptable for the calendar.)
