Put us down for two tanks, Louie.

* One for 3-5 of our over-the-hill retreads
* One for 2-3 new ones we'll pick up for the show

So, do I still need to send in the registration form? Or does this lock up the tanks for sure?

Don,

Still need to send in the entrant form please. PM me with your email address if you'd like me to send you a copy of the entrant packet.

You ssid "pick up for the show", sounds like there might be some competition for any new tosai coming in

Dear Members and Friends of ZNA Southern California Chapter Koi Club,

Our 34th Annual Open Koi Show will be held on March 15-16, 2008, at the Gardena Civic Center Complex (1700 West 162nd Street, Gardena, California 90247).

The show will again be held “English Style” and will be open to the public free of charge. Enclosed is the show packet and/or flyers containing information about this event. You can help us publicize our show by spreading the word among your koi kichi friends, displaying our show information at club meetings, and posting show flyers at koi related businesses. If you would like to volunteer to help with the koi show please contact club president, Don Kobashigawa, at (818) 207-3238 or donkobash@aol.com .We could use all the help we can get!!!

Several show activities have been scheduled throughout the weekend. Learn about pond building and koi husbandry at our Saturday 1-4pm Lecture Series (show site). Join us for the Awards Banquet on Saturday Evening, 6:30pm at the Holiday Inn Torrance Gateway Hotel. There will be surprise entertainment that you will not want to miss!!! Sunday Morning, participate in a Guided Commentary of the winning koi by ZNA Show Judges. They will describe the different types of koi and the attributes that make a champion fish! Also, on Sunday at 11 am, join us for the Great Koi Auction where you will be able to purchase show quality koi at discounted prices.

Our show will also host several Japanese cultural activities. On Saturday, there will be entertainment by Taiko Drummers and an ensemble of Japanese Singers. During both days the public may participate and learn from experts about Ikebana (Japanese flower arrangement), Origami (Japanese paper folding), Bonsai tree trimming, Orchid care, and Sumi-e (Japanese water color painting). Come participate and join in on the fun!

This show promises to be one of the premiere koi events of the year. It will be a memorable experience whether you plan to enter koi in the competition, participate as a vendor, or simply attend the show as an observer.
