I'm planning on going Saturday. There are a few workshops I've got my eye on, but how does it work? I see its a lottery, but if I send the money and don't make the cut how do I get reimbursed?

I just realized the site says my registration needs to be postmarked by the 20th. Am I too late to get in the lottery?

 

[Brian Underwood]

I'll be there for sure. Long drive, but totally worth it.

 

[treekutter]

You might call. I would send it in maybe they are not sold out?

I just recieved confirmation of my registration today. I also will be teaching a workshop this go around as well as a display of shohin trees.

One week away! It is going to be a blast. They still have workshops open. If you are in California you should not miss this convention.

Zack & I will be there vending, and I'll be teaching 2 workshops. Stop by and say "Hi," so that I can put faces with some of the names on here. It is probably my favorite bonsai event. - Bob

Anybody have any idea of what workshops are still open? I wasn't really planning on doing one, but I hear there might still be space.

I got an email awhile back with what opening were left, but I wanted to see if anyone had an up to date list.

Ready to get my shohin on!!!
