Fall is arriving and you know what that means — it's time for our annual get-together at the spectacular gardens and home of MSNAB Members Bart and Marielle Eykemans on Washington state's Olympic Peninsula!

Wander amidst more than 100 Japanese maple cultivars flaunting breathtaking colors against views of the Elwha River, with a glass of wine in one hand and Marielle's fabulous almond pastry in the other hand, all while enjoying the company of fellow maple enthusiasts.

Snacks and light refreshments will be provided. Attendees are welcome (but not required) to bring a snack or beverage to share.

This event is free, but limited to 45 members and guests, and registration is required so we can make sure there's enough wine and pastry for all!
