[IBC] 5th World Bonsai Convention 2005
Hi all,
Just a note to let you know about the website for the 5th World Bonsai Convention in 2005. The site is located at http://www.bonsai-wbff.org/wbc5/main.htm . Right now, only the dates, overview of the event, list of featured guests/speakers and contact information is available. More information will be added as it becomes available. This is an event hosted by the World Bonsai Friendship Federation every 4 years. In 2005, the North American member organization (North American Bonsai Federation) will host the event in Washington, D.C.. This event is special in that it is sponsored by ABS, BCI, NBF, Patomac Bonsai Association and the U.S. National Arboretum. Also, ABS and BCI will hold their annual meetings in conjunction with this event. Seems like a great example of the North American bonsai community coming together for a nice international cause. I hope that all here keep this event in mind and visit the site occasionally for updated information. Hope to see you all there in 2005! Kind regards, Andy Rutledge webmaster, WBFF/NABF www.bonsai-wbff.org ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Jarbas Godoy ++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?

My brother and his wife live outside of DC, so I'm hoping to stay there. I'm already getting excited about it, especially after seeing the list of who will be presenting.

Hi David,
I'm not sure how that's going to be handled. I encourage you to contact either Chris or Glenn (on the contact page) and ask if they yet know. Kind regards, Andy Rutledge www.andyrutledge.com/ zone 8, Texas ----- Original Message ----- From: "David J. Bockman" Is it too early to know what the vetting process will be for bonsai chosen for display/judging at this event? David J.

Jim, et all.,
Please reserve a comfortable chair for me at the bar. BTW Just in case Reiner is reading this, I prefer Bavarian lager over Labatts. Cheers.

As someone already noted, just follow Reiner. You'll find the
bar! Actually, the Washington Hilton Towers has a very nice bar just across from the front desk, on the other side of the elevators. The hotel is in a great location and is a terrific facility which can easily handle our convention. It has some notoriety as being the site where John Hinkley attempted to assassinate Ronald Reagan in 1982(?) as he left the hotel from the side entrance.

FWIW, they are letting Hinkley out of the mental hospital for "unsupervised" weekend visits home.

Hope to see you all there in 2005!
I live about an hour outside of DC, so seriously impoverished IBC'ers should start making reservations for my guest room!
