With the conclusion of our Badger Bonsai Society 2022 Annual Show today at Olbrich Gardens, we have tallied the attendee’s votes for their favorite tree on display. We had 65 bonsai on display from 17 of our members.

Over the course of this 2 day event, we tallied 2034 attendee’s votes. Because not all attendees chose to vote or did not turn in their voting slip, we typically estimate the total attendance to be 15% greater than the number of tallied votes — that would mean we estimate that 2340 people attended this two day event at Olbrich Gardens.
(Last year we had 1150 votes and estimated attendance of 1350 people.)

On behalf of the Badger Bonsai Society, we thank all attendees for your interest and enthuiasm!
Please check back later in the week at this site for a survey about our show.
