Club Notes
Diablo Bonsai Club October Show - October 18 & 19, 2003, Danville Community Center
Set up for the show will be late afternoon, Friday the 17th. We will need as many members as possible to help with the set up. Plan on being at the Danville Community Center to help.
Nick Nickerson has the sign up sheets for the several committees for the Club Fall Show. Please sign up with Nick, if you have not done so, so your fellow club volunteers can do the planning work needed to produce a show we can all be proud of and learn from.
All Club Members, even the newest members, are expected and invited to have two display trees for the show. Pick two or three candidates from your collection and bring them to the September Classes along with your donation trees. Even if you have only very young trees to show that is fine, this for all of us.
The Tree Sales Committee will need to get all sale trees inventoried. If you have K review them before the September meeting, be sure to bring a written record identifying the trees and the price K has suggested and give that information to Jim Stalker.The San Ramon Juniper - Delayed until after the October Show.
Editor's Note: Sensei Kunitoshi Akabane is recovering from surgery and I am sure he would appreciate hearing from Club members.
