Normally there are a number of spaces filled in the last week, I am normally a bit flexible so was not in a hurry to book my spot.
Last night I handed over my entry form.....
Was told
"sorry Tuesday evening June 1 is full."
"sorry Saturday is full"
In fact July 1,3,4,5 evenings are all full except 1 space in the Advanced critique.
Some daytime slots are still free on these days but the best chances are Mon 7th and Tues 8th afternoon and evening. Thursday afternoon July 3rd advanced critique has a few spots as well.

You can bring your entry forms to our "Sale Day" this Sunday June 1st if you wish to discuss what is available. Perhaps pick up a tree to work on at the same time.
