Gee I sure wish I could! Besides a large discus tank I also have a large Koi pond and a small goldfish pond in my yard. I wish I had known sooner and maybe could have made plans to go. Who knows, maybe I can still make it. Where in MD is Westminster?

Westminster is about 30 minutes west of the Baltimore Beltway. Coming up I95 to 695w to 795 to Md 140 I think it is.
Don't go that way much.

Is anybody going? I hope to go on Sunday. The weather should be great. Sunny and in the low 70's.

The koi and goldfish show was great. Here's some links with photos of the event.

The long fin butterfly koi was interesting looking.
