Program:                   

            This was a do-it-yourself, BYOT (bring your own tree) workshop. Everyone brought trees and

             worked on them . Larry brough a Chinese elm (which Rose, his wife, worked on) as well as a

             juniper. (Larry wants to thank John for his valuable help in resurecting this unattended tree and

            helping to make it respectable.)  Bruce worked on a big Schefflera, Cheryl re-potted a Ponderosa pine

            and a boxwood, and John got some work done (when he wasn't helping others) on one of two Shimpaku

           junipers he brought.
