Bob's NOTE:
The August meeting of the Central Arkansas Bonsai Society will be held on August 9th at the Amy Sanders Library in Sherwood. We meet from 10a till 1p. Anyone arriving earlier can help set up the tables and chairs would be greatly appreciated.
**********************************
This month's program will be presented by Dustin. He has chosen to speak about carving to make your tree look interesting and older. Dustin is an excellent wood carver. This should be an interesting demonstration.
**********************************
Wally will talk about his participation in the YouTube "Bonsai Expo" held on 8/25. This program was very well received.
**********************************
Our club will show trees at the Night Bloomers Garden Club's Flower show. Held at the North Baptist Church. (9618 Hwy 107, Sherwood). This will be held on 8/2 from 5p till 7p.
Six of our club members will show trees at this event.
**********************************
We will be judging for the best tree this month. Time to show off your best work, so bring your best tree to show off. As always, bring a tree to work on,
Take care, be well and keep the green side up,

Wally's Note:
Mike Hebert will be bringing a number of trees (a large number), some for giveaway and some for sale (no sales on premises). We know Mike as our Maple GURU...he knows his Maple trees. Some of his trees are in advanced development and some of these trees are in pots that are worth more than the tree.
**********************************
As Bob noted...At the meeting I will talk briefly about my experience in taking part in the YouTube Online Bonsai Expo, as well as my own YouTube Channel that I just started.
**********************************
Regarding the Night Bloomers Garden Show this Saturday night (August 2nd) from 5p-7p...if you want to see some of our members better trees we are showing off...then we welcome you to stop by the North Hills Baptist Church (across from Arkansas Gardens Nursery) between 5p and 7p.
**********************************
We had a great presentation last month by Dana Quattlebaum, and Dana has agreed to do our October presentation on refinement of established evergreen bonsai...in this case, it shall be a Taxus cuspidata, commonly called Japanese yew.
With that said...We'll see you on August 9th at 10am.
Also check out other Meetups in Sherwood, Business events in Sherwood, Exhibitions in Sherwood.
