Sacramento Combined Koi Show

[scvkoi]

Hi Guys and Gals,

Thanks for your support of our event. Looking forward to seeing you all in our area late September.... Gonna have a K-U area for you all as in the past.
As in the past the event is designed for koi-kichi of all level to have fun and enjoy great company....
Don't know if we can help you with Claim Jumpers...may be over time their memory will be hazy....lol.

Aquitori, the hall for the event this year is smaller than last year. So the dry vendors are indoors and the Koi Show and wet vendors are out doors. This means that there isn't room for all of the activities we would like to have.
Remember, we try to have something new each year for the event.....

This year in addition to the Pond Builders, Garden Clubs as well a Vendor Faire we are making changes to the Venue, the Koi Show and adding Speakers. Many of the changes come in response to suggestions made by Camellia Koi Club members at the debriefing of the 2006 event and from discussions with koi-kichi and non koi-kichi types.

This year’s event will be held at Johnson Hall (across the street from Jones Hall) at the Placer County Fairgrounds on September 22 – September 23, 2007. The Combined Koi Show and Wet Vendors will be outdoors with Dry Vendor being indoors this year. Johnson Hall has a darken stage that we will used for lectures on topics related to Koi such as Koi Ponds, Koi, Koi Food, etc. In 2007 we look forward to having a Concessionaire to provide food for the Public during the event.
The largest number of changes will occur with the Combined Koi Show. The event is Combined with the addition of a Dealer’s Division, a Novice Division, along with the Open Koi Show. The ultimate goal for the changes is to bring out the BEST Koi no matter the affiliation of the Koi owner. The Dealers will nominate a Koi or two that will compete against other Koi Dealer’s Koi for Grand Champion and Runner-Up Grand Champion in the Dealer Division. The Novice Division is opened to any Koi Hobbyist who has never entered a Koi Show. Koi owned by a Novice will be judged in the Open Koi Show and then judged separately against other Koi entered by Novice Koi Hobbyist for Grand Champion, Runner-Up Grand Champion, Best Adult, and Best Young in the Novice Division. Not to be left out is the addition of a Best Jumbo to the Open Division. All judging will be by the Koi Show Judges. The biggest changes for the Open and Novice Divisions comes in the cost, Entry fee is a flat $40.00 for each 6’ Koi Show Tank or a flat $60.00 for each 8’ Koi Show Tank. There is no fee for Koi this year!
Dry Vendors are not without their own contest; they will be competing for Best Booth Award voted by all participants. There are other surprises planned, stay tuned!

Garry I'll ask around about how a goldfish show is run. Maybe next year you can add it...

The Portland Show is a Koi / Goldfish competition. They set up aquariums on the inside and have several judges. It runs much the same as a Koi show. They do a great job with the whole event.
