Due to a scheduling conflict, we've moved the White Elephant Sale to our October Society meeting. Bring items for donation to the Society, and bring money to participate! Always a fun event! The October Society meeting will be held at the Chicago Botanic Garden's Regenstein Center at 7:00 PM on October 3rd. See you there!
Tree Registration for the 39th Annual Mid-America Bonsai Exhibit is today, between 12 and 7, at the Chicago Botanic Garden's Regenstein Center. There is no cost for registration, which is open to all, with no membership or residency requirements.
