On behalf of ZNA NorCal koi club, we would like to say many many thanks to all the sponsors! Our upcoming show will not be called a success without your sponsorship and generosity!
Your participation in the ZNA NorCal Koi Show will help further our koi hobby. For vendors, it is a great way to promote your business’ products and services directly to the hobbyists who use them. In addition to the koi show and vendor booths, vendors are invited to demonstrate their products and present information in seminar format throughout the day on Saturday. This focused opportunity will provide you with increased visibility and is intended to educate hobbyists in the latest advances in construction/filtration technology, koi nutrition and health care.
We also need your help with raffle/auction donations and sponsorship of :
Trophies and awards
Show pins
Friday night judges dinner
Friday or Saturday luncheon to show volunteers
We are honored to announce the official judging team for this year's 3rd Annual ZNA-Norcal Koi show:
1. Bob Finnegan as Head Judge
2. Larry Christensen, Assistant Judge
3. Junichi Kayano, Candidate Judge
As you know, Mr. Bob Finnergan is one of the co-founders of AKCA!
Mr. Christensen and Mr. Kayano are also very well respected in the koi-kichi world.
More info like vendor list will be provided/updated later on this Website. So make sure to check back often.
