Minutes of the April 9, 2017 meeting
of the Michiana Bonsai Study
Present: Larry Benjamin, John Cerovski, John DeMaegd, Mary Hesser, Sofia Ivanova,
Mark Rennie, Paul Weishaar and Deanna Young
Location: Home of Larry Benjamin
Program:
Sofia and Mark, Deanna, John DeMaegd and Larry worked on their own trees (BYOT). In addition,
Mary and Deanna purchased shimpaku junipers for our workshop and worked on styling them. In all
of these activities we were fortunate to have the assistance of our own club member John DeMaegd as
well as our two welcome, experienced and talented guests: John Cerovski from Kalamazoo and Paul
Weishaar from Indianapolis. With the help of a beautiful spring day (the high was 76 degrees !), we all
came away with better trees for our collections.
