However, as things developed a couple of additions were made. The team wanted to recognise the sad loss to the hobby of their former member, Mark Gardner. It is well known that Mark had a soft spot for Showa but in recent times, his own breeding project opened up a fascination for the more unusual; we therefore decided to allow members to enter a 7th<\/sup> fish into a \u201cbest unique\u201d category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Next, we decided that if enough fish were entered, we would also award a best in class for each of the 13 BKKS varieties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crouch came out in force for their koi fix and although two or three were forced to drop out, 21 members and a total of 135 were entered and with the membership stretching far and wide to all corners of Essex (plus a trip to Kent), the show team were kept very busy. Finally, despite some delays along the way (Covid reared its head again), the members gathered at their December meeting to hear the results. That evening saw a brief critique of each fish using the photograph and 20 second video taken at the time of judging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crouch was very fortunate to have the support of Burtons Aquatics who provided a wealth of prizes for our winners and because of their generosity and some very nice koi mugs purchased by the club, no one who took part in the competition went home empty handed. The club is very grateful to Burtons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition to thanking Burtons, Crouch Valley would like to thank all its members who entered and our three members, Keith, Tony and Steve whose hard work made this such a successful event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
