<p class="MsoNormal"><span>What a show!!!!! Cresta Shopping Centre was the sole sponsor of this show which certainly went a long way in making it the show that it was. Cresta allowed us to use the amphitheatre which is an ideal venue for the Baby Koi Show. The Dros went out of their way to cater for our needs, orchestrated by Mary-Ann Harrison.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span><img height="161" width="356" src="images/stories/reserve-grand-champion.jpg" alt="reserve-grand-champion" style="float: left;" />Congratulations go to James and Sibusiso Norrie who took a clean sweep with Grand Champion and Reserve Grand </span><span></span><span>Champion with two magnificent showa’s from sizes three and four. Mario Wilken took Baby Grand Champion from sizes one and two with a shiny bright Yamatonishiki. The Chairman’s Award went to Kevin Harrison for his beautiful Ochibe Shigure. The KZN Friendship Award was awarded to Imraan Osman for his lovely Tancho Sanke who was also a first time entrant. Supreme size 1, 2, 3 & 4 went to David Coetzee, Mario Wilken, Arthur Aucamp and Trish MacIntosh, respectively. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Thanks to Harry Beckx (Head Judge) and Mike Harvey who came up from KZN, along with Raj Laloo and Jim Phillips who were the judges at the show. Oosie Strydom and Rene Schoenmaker were responsible for the benching assisted by Maria-Anna Botha. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Many thanks go to the dealers who supported the show - Loolilocks, Golden Dragon and Naurtic Koi Farm. It was extremely satisfying to see the extremely pleasing prices of the koi on sale. Good koi were sold at very reasonable<span> </span>prices which is a definite breath of fresh air in the present economic climate.</span></p>
