Koi ponds for viewing, Using the Net, directories for clubs in your area   6/6/10
Hello WetWeb,
This may not be the best avenue to find an answer to my question, but I'll give it a try.
I'm teaching a kid's Japanese culture class this summer in Seattle and we're going to create a chalk sidewalk Koi pond.
<Neat>
I was hoping to show the group a live Koi pond so they'd have a better sense of what a Koi pond was about, how it looked, etc. I understand that the Japanese Gardens in Madison have a full Koi pond, but if there was someone in the area that had a smaller Koi display they'd be willing to let about 20 people view, I'd love to know about them.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Penny Kumagai Atcheson
<I'd try: Washington Koi & Water Garden Society (Seattle) - Ginny Lee (360) 659-XXXX, and ask if there's a club member who is amenable to having your group over, explaining their system's various elements. Bob Fenner>
