<h3> <strong>Congratulations to Preservation Idaho&#39;s </strong><strong>2010 Orchid Award Recipients! </strong></h3> <p> <strong>The 33rd Annual Awards Were Held May 8th at the Idaho State&nbsp;Capitol Building.</strong></p> <p> Since 1977, Preservation Idaho has hosted the annual Orchids &amp; Onions Awards, a ceremony designed to celebrate those individuals and organizations that have made a positive contribution to historic preservation, and in turn, to bring awareness to those projects which have shown an insensitivity to historic preservation.</p>
