Advanced Build-A-Pond Day
At an Advanced Build-A-Pond seminar, you can expect to get a hands-on, eyeball-to-eyeball, roll-up-your sleeves, do-it-yourself learning session from top installers. This session is designed specifically for the installer who already has several water garden installations under his or her belt, and who'll benefit from experiencing an installation that features a few twists and turns not covered in the regular sessions. The Advanced Build-A-Pond Day seminar starts with a pre-excavated pond so you can concentrate on more advanced techniques such as machine-set rock placement, wetland filtration, skimming wet-wells, large and/or multiple waterfall construction and much more. Each Advanced Build-A-Pond Day is unique in its own right, so be sure to take advantage of every one.
