Very nice article acknowledging Grant Fugita in Rinko ( then ZNA's organizational magazine). The article focuses on Grant's contribution to the Northern California ZNA chapter and how he was starting a judges training program within the chapter back then. His chapter president interviewed Grant and discussed the current state of affairs of the Northern California ZNA and the advantages of having a knowledge Japanese dealer and landscaper within their chapter. A nice job.

Grant had put on a 1988 seminar in Hayward that was very sucessful for his business and for the Northern California chapter. They planned on doing another on filtration but I'm not sure it ever came off?

This photo shows the chapter president, Bob Hewitt ( right, croughing down) and an active NC ZNA member ( Emilo Bautista) and owner of a Grant supplied GC at the 1989 cherry blosson festival.

Are these two members still active in the NC ZNA ?
