Okay so next sunday (the 29th of april) apparently there's going to be a bonsai show at Penrith Police and Youth Community Club. I was just wondering if anyone else is going and if they are what should I look out for because I have finally saved up some money so if I see something I like I can buy it.

I got the flyer at Ray Nesci Bonsai last month and I am definitely dragging my dad out to Penrith so I can go.
Regards, Coocarch

It's actually the Nepean Bonsai Society Annual Exhibition.
Held at Penrith PCYC, Station Street, Penrith, just off the High Street Shopping Centre.
Parking right opposite.
From 9am this Sunday, 29th April.
Stack of exhibits, sales, pottery, bromeliads, advice, tea/coffee and a never-before-seen display of bonsai in a 'contemporary' setting.
Well worth a visit.

I'll have to remember to bring a camera along if I'm to take any pictures. Thanks for replying, I was beginning to think I was the only one who knew. So are you two going? If you are then I hope to see you both there on Sunday!
*side note* It actually starts at 9:30am (sorry to correct you) and ends at 4:30pm so there's going to be a fair amount of time to see the exhibit, have a cuppa and hit up the sale tables (I plan on buying at least 3 new trees and maybe a pot). Admission is $4 per adult, $2 per pensioner and kids under 15 free when accompanied by an adult. Its opposite Penrith Pool and access to the car park is via Union road. The flyer also says that Bromeliads are also for show and sale and also that advice is free!
Can't wait for sunday!
