Damn! I was really looking forward to the 'yoda search' - figured it would be a no brainer!

I'll definitely be at the Marc Noelanders demo at 1 PM. Black glasses, black bonsai shirt.

:shock:

The 3rd National Bonsai Exhibition is now history. "Beyond Awesome". Perhaps the finest gathering of bonsai ever in America, and also a sales/vending area to satisfy all your needs. A huge thank you to Bill Valavanis and his army of helpers and sponsors. I regret that I was not able to stay the full two days.

I trust that the events in Indianapolis were a success as well. So glad that Manix 5 posted here and 'got the word out'.

Tom - I think we had 3 members of the Indianapolis Bonsai Club display trees at the National Bonsai Exhibition this past weekend. I haven't heard how they did yet. The Show in Indianapolis was very nice. I have posted a link if anyone cares to view the photos.
Regards,
Brad

We don't often get follow-ups with any photos from the events posted in this thread - and I don't take ANY pictures personally. But thank to our unofficial club photographer we do have these pics from the weekend show in Utica. Click on the bright red bougainvillea to see the gallery - and keep in mind that this is in upstate New York - https://www.mvbonsai.com/

Forgive me for posting this in 2 different threads! I'm just so proud.

It is our club's 7th birthday - we always celebrate in July.

The annual picnic & silent auction is Saturday July 14 at the Ilion (NY) marina pavilion along the canal on Route 51 on the north side of the village.

The club provides the cold drinks and asks that everyone bring a 'dish to share', and to please donate some bonsai related items for the auction. Typically there will be a very large assortment of starter trees, pots, tools and wire, along with some higher level bonsai surprises and some general garden supplies. This is our club's main fundraiser for the year and it is a fun-filled family affair. Always plenty of good food and friendly socializing.

All are welcome - especially anyone from outside the club who may have seen our recent exhibits and is considering joining and those who are having difficulty finding sources of inexpensive bonsai material.

See www.mvbonsai.com for more info.

Tom: great idea! I'm in ME & there's little traction in regards to bonsai. It seems Ma or NH are my only options :(
