Koi Kichi's seem to be equally divided-east & west

I think each club/region has their shining stars when it comes to enthusiasm,
experience and willingness to share.

In the Northwest we have an association that awards special people with what is called the bronze koi award. Just one is awarded each year from the letters of recommendation from associated clubs. A history of outstanding service has to be documented for a DECADE! I'm glad to see folks get this special recongnition. By the Way, Gene's wife Phyllis received the award last year.

You know I've been a disciple here for 2+years. As long as Dick keeps teaching...I'll keep soaking it up like a sponge. Can never thank him (and koi-bito) enough. The lessons have been invaluable!!!

This is very true Dan, I am bringing Dick down to my place, High Desert Koi, next spring for two days of personalized one on one coaching. Very limited on class size so every one gets two days of personal coaching. Anyone can sponser Dick for an event, class, or seminar like I'm doing.
PS anyone interested please PM me.
