This is in response to Bekko's and Joe's posts re: show in Hawaii...
Bekko's right, at the last club meeting I brought up what I thought would be a perfect venue for our first show in a long time...Boys' Day, 5 May 05... How auspicious can it be...Triple 5.
My pet peeve is that when you put something like this on, the same 5-8 individuals do all the work... So I was very surprised when 13 0f 20 people volunteered to work the show... More would have committed but I asked for a three day commitment... I'm sure if we split the work over three days then all 20 would have volunteered... At that point I thought " piece of cake" we got us a show...
Now here's what Bekko is talking about... I asked "How many of you would be willing to show your koi"...You would have thought that E.F. Hutton walked into the meeting...Deathly Silence, not one hand raised...No body wanted to show their koi...
So now it's onto Plan "B"...no judging, just showing koi for the public's appreciation and education, everyone showing in their own tanks... Will be discussing this topic on Sunday, the 20th of Feb... Will keep you apprised
Joe thanks for your offer, will keep it in mind... I think Kenneth and Shirleen miss you guys already...Tell Kevin I still want to see those Kohakus he didn't bring to the Hawaii Seminar….As to Mr. Winkler...Is he still being stalked by Mr. L...
Aloha! Mike
