Nishiki Young Koi Show Photos

Many thanks to all the fine folks that put together the 29th Nishiki Young Koi Show this weekend. Martha and I had a great time meeting new koi friends and visiting with old ones. The quality of the koi were outstanding and the quality of the koi kichi was even better. Here are a few photos hopefully others will add to this thread.

#1 Show site located at Andrews Koi International in Anaheim, CA
#2 Louie Hernandez - Show Chairman
#3 Pam Spindola - Judging Coordinator and host extraordinaire
#4 Debby Young - Show Computer Program Guru
#5 Show Judges - Dave Young (head judge), Joe White (certified judge),
Ray Jordan (candidate judge)
#6 Grand Champion - Incrediable Shiro Utsuri owned by Vaughn & Kim Monis
#7 Young Champion
#8 Fantastic Sanke best in size 5 I think and a super kumanryu
#9 Vaughn & Kim Momis

Correct me if I am wrong, the #8 Fantastic Sanke best in size 5 looks like the Genjiro Sanke that was on koi auction a few months ago.

Louie & Sherrie . . .

truly a high class operation from start to finish -- with lovely weather, a great venue, hard working staff, outstanding judges, friendly contestants and beautiful koi.

I really, really enjoyed the weekend and I'm already looking forward to next year!

I had a great time!

This was a great show. Not as big as some of the other So Cal shows, but you would never know it looking at the koi. The weather was perfect and the koi were amazing! These Nishiki Koi club folks know how to put on a show!

Ray . . .

so nice to finally meet you (and Martha) after "crossing posts" with you for such a long time.

Not everyone is as charming, as knowledgeable and as affable in person as their internet personna would lead one to believe. You, on the other hand, are the real deal.

Thanks for performing your duties in such warm and personable manner and I hope we meet again -- real soon!
