ZNA NorCal - Newly born chapter !!!!

I have the great privilege to announce that, Northen California Koi Club, a ZNA NorCal Chapter has been officially formed today in San Jose, California, USA. All requirements for ZNA NorCal Chapter have been met.

I would like to thank Mr. Ron Goforth, US District Chairman for helping me for the last 10 months to form the ZNA NorCal Chapter.

I would like to thank Yuko Shirako (ZNA International Division) and Seiichi Miyamori, Secretary General of ZNA Head Office in Tokyo for helping and providing information during the process of forming ZNA NorCal. Your help is greatly appreciated.

I would like to thank all ZNA NorCal members for supporting; willingly to be member of our newly club; and for attending the historical meeting today to form ZNA NorCal. Without you all, it is impossible to success.

I would like to thank all elected Executive Officers and Board of Directors for more than willing to lead and serve us. Congratulations to all elected officers. Here are the first ZNA NorCal elected officers:

Executive Officers:
1) Grant Fujita ----- President
2) Antonio Quitariano ----- Vice President
3) Khoa Tran ------ Treasurer
4) Joelan Dunkel ------ Secretary

Board of Directors
1) Mike Perret
2) Erwin Santos
3) Dan Rutledge

As mentioned before, to prevent the "Founder's Syndrome" issue that some club ran into and as a person who drafted the ByLaws for ZNA NorCal, I did not run or take any officer postion. But as the club founder, I will continue to do my best as an active member to serve our club.

Thank you and congratulations to all for being part of the founding member of the ZNA NorCal.

--Dinh Nguyen

Just wanted to thank Dinh for all his hard work in organizing this club!!!

Nancy, a koi show is far from our focus right now, but expect one in the near future and I do mean near future....

I think the point of this club, is to bring each and every members hobby to another level...I dont mean that with money but with appreiation of Nishikigoi.

Matbe some day there will be a drive to have a joint effort by the SoCal and NorCal to throw a All-California ZNA Show.

Tony
