The CBS Fall 2015 Show was a complete blast (as usual). We were very happy to have so many people come to our show! Sam and I chaired this show (with Sam doing most of the paperwork  hehehe :p) and he did a fantastic job as a first time chair person. We will see if we can rope him into it again ;)

Nelson has a halo because he is AWESOME hahaha

International Betta Congress Convention 2015! Hosted by Midwest Betta Society

I had a blast at the convention in Indianapolis! I was also able to visit one of my best friends from High School while I was there, which made it extra awesome! I didn't take as many pictures this time as I usually do since I was busy socializing and judging :) Many of these picture were taken by others at the convention as well. Thanks guys!

We also set up a hashtag for convention this year! Check out #IBCConvention on Facebook and Twitter.

Awwwww love this photo :) Martin is a new judge! He went through trial by fire with Rich and Phil!

California Betta Society Spring IBC 2015 Show Report

6/6/2015

I accidentally created the full show report in the regular blog section (having two blogs on one site is a little confusing lol). Weebly still doesn't have an easy way to move blog posts from one to another (or maybe I just can't find it). Please follow the link to the actual show report! Apologies for the mix-up!

California Betta Society Fall IBC Show 2014!

12/17/2014

0 Comments

 
We had a wonderful show this past weekend! Lots of good looking fish, and of course our core group of awesome CBS club members :) I am grateful for being a part of such a wonderful club! It was also the very first show that I officially judged!

One worrying thing was the small number of entries. We had only 160 fish show up, which is roughly half of our normal numbers. People, send your fish! It's the only way that we can keep putting on our shows twice a year, one of the few clubs able to do so. We are in serious need of fundraising before our next show, which we hope to put on during the spring as usual.

International Betta Congress Convention 2014! Hosted by the California Betta Society

7/16/2014

My local California Betta Society hosted the 2014 Internatoinal Betta Society Convention several weekends ago, and wow! I think it was a complete success! Sorry for the delay - I had to recover from the excitement, as well as attend a wedding, so compiling all the pictures has taken a while!

Convention is wonderful in so many ways. It is the culmination of the show year, and many breeders send their best fish to this last show in order to make room for next year. There are seminars, workshops, stock shops, silent auctions, live auction...but the best thing to me is getting to talk with some of my dearest Betta friends. We are spread far and wide, but we are by far the best fish keepers (in my humble opinion...please don't eat me cichlid people!). I wish I could see my friends all the time, but then Convention would not be as special. What a whirlwind!

My favorite picture from this show. Bob (furthest left) looks like he's very tired with all the opinions flying around...

Had a great time apprentice judging and showing in San Jose, CA! I was lucky enough to apprentice judge under David Spectre, one of the judges that made me want to become a judge in the first place :) I learned a LOT. Our fish also did really well in the show!

How to prepare an IBC entry form

9/21/2013

0 Comments

 
Filling out the IBC entry form can seem like a daunting task. All you need to do is take it one step at a time :)

1) Figure out which fish you will be keeping, auctioning, or putting on the cash table.
2) Organize your fish by this order.
3) Put their numbers on their jars.
4) Figure out which number enters which division and class on the written sheet. Write them down in order.
5) Type in all of your information into the IBC entry form. Voila!
