We had a planning meeting for the Show today. Anyone thinking of coming from afar should make room reservations right away. The hotel is nearly booked for the whole weekend! It is going to be the best show ever in Florida.

Hey Keokoi take hella pics...Kinda interesting to see what comes out.

There are very high end koi on the way. It looks like the largest number of entries and the highest quality of any show ever held in Florida. Some are saying it could prove to be the equal of any show ever held east of the Mississippi. One thing's for sure. The number of vendors is through the roof! Had to get a second tent to have room for all who wanted to come. This is the show for East Coast Koikeepers to make a point of attending.

Just wanted to get everyone's opinion after the show...I want to see if something that big could be pulled off here in California...

[MikeM]

Hey, if we can make some Californians a bit jealous it will definitely be a success! We've envied California's shows for a long time.

Joking aside, it really looks like it is going to be awesome.
