This Saturday I'll skip the usual bonsai club workshop. Instead I'll be giving a tour at the Botanic Garden to a group of new volunteers.
We had 2 docents as tour guides and 10 newbies in the Ambassador program, the greeters at the gates of the BioPark facilities. I took my 5 aside and gave them a combination of "here's what people will ask about" and "these are things to suggest to new visitors." It was in the low 80's by the time we finished, but in 90 minutes we got to every part of the garden, including the Cottonwood Gallery. I may have even recruited another Nature's Notebook observer.
