Iris

At least 2 of us from Olean, NY area hope to be there both Sat. & Sun.

I expect to be there for parts of both days.

Just got back from helping set up. Got a sneak preview of the early arrivals, including some of the trees from the west coast. Let me just say this - if you're on the fence about attending, get off the fence and get to the show! Some magnificent bonsai, and I've only seen the tip of the iceberg.

Yesterday in 12 hours we set up the US National Bonsai Exhibition. At one time, just before dinner, we counted 45 volunteers!

Attached are a few photos, everyone is invited to attend this stellar event in the history of bonsai in the United States. These photos are only ONE HALF of the exhibit, plus huge vendor area.

I hope to be able to welcome you too. Im off to ben placing over 200 bonsai!

Hello,

I am looking forward to this weekend. Does anyone know if pictures are allowed this year? I know the past two Exhibitions did not allow cameras in or pictures to be taken.

Thanks,
Abe

I don't believe photographs are allowed of the actual exhibit, but cameras are allowed in the sales area. If that's incorrect, I'm sure Bill will correct me if he has time. I know he still has a lot to do tonight.

BTW, just got back from helping with day 2 of the set-up. It's a tremendous exhibition with many stunning trees.
