Please note the special July meeting time and place!

July Meeting

Saturday, July 14th, 9:30 AM-  Workshop - Tassajara Nursery

Diablo Bonsai Club Look Ahead Schedule

No August Meeting.

Notes

Meeting Place - Due to the increasing cost of rental of the Heather Farms facility, the club is looking for a new place to hold its monthly meetings.  It has also been suggested that we might want to change our meeting time to Saturday mornings, rather than a weekday evening.  If you know of some place we could have our meetings, at either of these times, please contact Byron.
