Hi All,

Just a reminder that the 3rd Newstead Bonsai Extravaganza is to be held on Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st September at the Newstead Bonsai Centre located in West Yorkshire, UK. Held every 2 years, the Newstead Extravaganza again promises to bring together the best exhibition of Bonsai under one roof in the UK. Demonstrations will be carried out through the weekend by Japanese Master, Mr Nobutaka Sakuma, who will also select the winners for the best Shohin, Chuhin, Mid-size and Large-size bonsai. The British Shohin Association will also be presenting a special award.

Over 120 trees and several suiseki displays have already been allocated display space at Newstead. If you have not been allocated space it is still not too late but send pictures of your trees to John as soon as you can.

- Demonstrations by Japanese Master Mr Nobutaka Sakuma
- 1,000s of Bonsai trees, raw material, pots, accessories plus much more...
- Japanese Garden supplies & trees
- Superb garden centre and craft area

You will be mode most welcome at the exhibition and we would very much appreciate your support with what promises to be the best exhibition of Bonsai in the UK this year. Visitors and exhibitors from Europe are always welcome. Major airports and Hull Ferry Port within one hours drive.

If any full member is going to attend, perhaps you might like to take along the digital camera and post them for all of us to see.

Mr. Bruce.
This site is not keen on advertisements from non-paying sources. Please take no offence. I mention this to put the point to everyone.
