Midwest Dahlia Conference Dahlia Judging Seminar
Saturday, August 14th, 2010
Bonneville Mill Park--Bonneville Trial Garden
Bristol, Indiana


The Midwest Dahlia Conference, in conjunction with the Elkhart Dahlia Society and the Bonneville Trial Garden, is pleased to announce a Dahlia Judging Seminar.

All members of the Midwest Dahlia Societies are encouraged to attend.  Even though an individual may not have any intention of becoming a dahlia judge, this event will prove very instructive to anyone who grows the dahlia.  All are welcome.

Agenda:
9:00 AM to 11:30 AM Team judging in the Bonneville Mill ADS Trial Garden
11:30 AM to 12:30 PM Potluck luncheon
12:30 PM to 1:00 PM Jerry Wittrig presents:  "Tips on Judging the Open Centered Dahlias"
1:00 PM to 1:30 PM Mac Boyer presents:  "Tips on Completing the Trial Garden Judging Sheet and Thoughts on the Double Novelty Section of Dahlias"

Those who are coming from an hour or more are encouraged to bring salads (in ice chests) or desserts for the potluck luncheon.  Members of the Elkhart Dahlia Society have indicated that they will bring the hot dishes.  Since the Elkhart Club will also be furnishing food, they would like to have some idea of the numbers of us who are planning to attend.  So ---- please let Mac Boyer know how many people you are bringing:   manorsam@aol.com  or phone 574-848-4888.
