Introduction

The following images were taken at the August 1998 REBS Show. There are about seventy five tokonoma each year encompassing hundreds of trees. We also have displays of suiseki, workshops and demonstrations, raffles, a club sale and about a dozen vendors. It is held on the last weekend in August each year at the Veterans Memorial Auditorium in Santa Rosa California.

Enjoy!
