KOI CLUB OF SAN DIEGO


OUR MISSION

To promote the enjoyment and better understanding of Koi and the hobby. We wish to foster and promote a spirit of friendship and camaraderie among our club’s membership, other Koi clubs, and the public. Through the exchange of information and support, our goal is to educate its members and the public to the benefits of keeping Koi and its promote through research and education while constantly improving methods of providing Koi with safe and healthy environments




OUR HISTORY

In 1984 a few koi hobbyists in San Diego came together to form an organization based on their shared enjoyment of these beautiful fish. Since that time the club has grown to over 120 families and our mission has evolved to include education of our members and the public on all aspects of koi keeping, to promote the koi hobby, and to become a part of the larger community of koi enthusiasts throughout the country and the world.

Monthly meetings are generally held on the second Sunday of each month at members’ homes; and we invite you to join us if you have an interest in koi or are considering a pond. Typical programs at these meetings  include: how to select young koi, what to feed your koi, pond filtration systems, water plants, and many more koi topics. Our members, who are always willing to share their knowledge with others, range from beginners building their first pond to experts on water quality, pond construction, koi health, and selecting koi.

The Koi Club of San Diego's annual open koi show is one of the largest in the United States, with as many as 350 koi competing for awards before a prestigious international team of judges. At the show people come together not only to celebrate the finest koi but to renew friendships with koi keepers from around the world. The koi show is the major event within each year, but we are an active group and also take part in koi rescue & rehoming, koi auctions, potlucks and pond tours. Some of us even travel around the country to visit other koi clubs and koi shows to present friendship awards or enter our koi in their shows.
