Welcome to the 8th Annual Koi Show
Presented by ZNA NorCal
Thank you for attending our annual koi show. We hope to make your visit as
enjoyable as possible. All of our club members and volunteers love to talk about
koi and ponds and will be happy to answer any questions about the fish in the
show or any other aspect of the hobby.
The enthusiastic members of ZNA NorCal have produced the entire show. All of
the koi inside of the show ring are in competition for awards and are owned by
private individuals with backyard ponds.
Many are from enthusiasts in the Bay area while others have come from across
the country and possibly from another country. ZNA NorCal is just one of the
many koi clubs in the US and around the World.
While ZNA NorCal members are primarily interested in raising and showing very
high quality koi. There are a number of other clubs in the area that emphasize
other aspects of the hobby. The beauty of keeping koi is that it can be enjoyed at
many levels with koi costing thousands of dollars apiece to koi that are 25 cents
apiece.
Other clubs in the area include:
• Santa Clara Valley Koi & Water Garden Club
• SF Bay Area Koi Club
• Monterey Bay Koi and Pond Club
• Central California Society
• Camellia Koi Club
Please Visit Our Vendors:
We could not put on this show every year without the support of our vendors.
They have booths around the vendor area and would enjoy answering your
questions about koi, koi keeping and their products.
Many have show specials so this is a great opportunity to get some great deals.
Please Don’t Touch:
Parents, please help keep little hands out of the water. This is for their protection as well as for the koi. Never feed the koi or drop anything into the tanks.
Since there is no filtration running, we must be very careful to maintain healthy
water quality.
Be careful not to lean on the tanks. They are very flexible and if pushed too hard
a catastrophe could result.
Thanks For Coming:
We really appreciate your interest. If you’re thinking about joining our club,
please see the folks at the admin desk. We have a number of enjoyable and
interesting events for members throughout the year. Check our website: http://

BLAZO POND SERVICES
Build your koi pond right the first time…
Or fix it if you didn’t.
Do you want a koi pond that is beautiful; a peaceful, serene ambiance for your peace
of mind; cost-efficient; easy to maintain and—most important of all—healthy for
your fish?
Rick Blazo, Blazo Pond Services, has been building, retrofitting and maintaining koi
ponds for over 30 years. He has studied with koi experts in the US and Japan and
has an inherent love of Nishikigoi (Swimming Jewels).
In recognition of his expertise, Rick has been asked to be responsible for water
quality at the ZNA NorCal Koi Show for the last four years and, in so doing, has
been entrusted with the safety of the championship level koi being shown there.
Knowing that the health and well being of the koi is based primarily on the quality
of the water that sustains them, Rick has learned what is needed for their habitat
……what is needed for your koi pond.
Contact Rick for a consultation before you build your pond or if you already have a
pond that is not working as well as you and your koi would like. His services
include:
* Pond Consulting
* Pond Design & Retrofit
* Filtration Systems & Equipment
