California Betta Society Spring IBC Show 2015 Report

Our lovely judges and apprentices for BOV and BOS!
Phew! Chairing my first show was a blast! My favorite was that everyone showered me with delicious brownies and french fries. For the most part, everything went pretty smoothly. I just love love love my home club...CBS really is the best!

Since I was basically chained to my computer the entire time, all of these photos were taken by my friends at the show. We have such a wonderful core group of people that make these shows happen. 
Setting up!

A field of beanies being filled, and me getting schooled on the dreaded mail merge...many a show chair's nightmare
