That is what I am doing next week. See item from our newsletter:
FREE CLINIC

For anyone who received a bonsai or a bonsai kit for the holidays, or
any
other new bonsai owners, there will be a free clinic at Pitcher Hill
Community
Church on Thursday, January 27, at 7:30 PM.
Tell your new bonsai friends to bring their gift trees with them, and
our
experienced members will show them what to do next. Please post the
enclosed
flier in your nearest garden store. Any BKCNY members who would like
to help, call
Iris at 461-9226.


Great idea Iris. I'm going to be giving a talk/demo at our local
public library in May and I'll add this to the program. Maybe it would
encourage those who just don't know what to do.
