I am so dissapointed that we can't go - but we will make an extra effort to clear our schedules for the next one.

I'm sure it's gonna be a great show - we will be there in spirit.

And it seems that you guys have done a truly amazing job promoting it - way to go, all the hard work will pay off I'm sure.

Henry is the Canadian Croc hunter - I've seen him wear his khaki shorts when it was nearly snowing.

Oh, and tell Miranda congrats for being on T.V. for us - I hope all her friends got to watch.

This show is going to rock! I can't wait for the weekend!!! I actually took those days off from work just so I could go.

I look forward to seeing a lot of new faces, and catching up with some familiar ones.

Canada Day Sunlight PlayDay at the Abbotsford Exibition Park was a major success. Our booth was one of the most popular with everyone wanting to touch and hold the snakes and Tortoises. We were busy from noon to 6:00.

For all the vendors please be advised we will be setting up this evening 6:00-10:00 - Hope to see you there.

id never been to a herp show before and i must say it was great. ill be back there tomorrow!!

Mmm... I went on Saturday and really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, the friend that I brought along who drove had to go early, so I didn't get to stay very long. I did enjoy meeting Henry Piorun, Annie. B, and Walter Pacholko (who I bought a nice little baby Sav from). I talked to a lot of other people too as I made a round of the place, but am just clueluess who they were! All the monitor lizards were making me drool, LOL. I just wish there had been red ackies there as well. It was also my first time seeing GTP's in the flesh and they're even nicer than I thought!!!

Anyway, great show, I just wish I had more time there. I could have easily spent 3x as long oogling all the great herps!!! Next time I'm taking my own car :P

David Kwok · 07-04-04, 06:55 PM

Congrats and thanx to Terri, Henry and Jason for putting on the awsome show!

Clownfishie · 07-04-04, 07:20 PM

Ditto!

Great job guys... I had an awesome time, and I'll be posting pics of my new additions shortly

WOO!! Good show, great show. Worth the trip from Kamloops. I got a nice fire crestie from Beth Wallbank, pictuses from Geckoguy and Tim/Julie B, and a het for who-knows-what leopard gecko also from Geckoguy (Braydon). And some feeders from Walter. I gotta say, good quality on animals and also to Walter, I've never seen such plump and juicy, healthy looking superworms in 4 years.

Lots of cool stuff there including Jackson's chameleons, humungous tinctorius arrow frogs, and some nice ETPs, lots of cool geckos too.

Good stuff.

David and I would really like to congratulate Henry, Terri, Jason and Leona for putting on such a great show and all the effort (and money!!) put into advertising really paid off. It was great to have all our friends from Alberta here to support the first show as well. I bet next year's show is already in the planning stage!!
Well done everyone.....Andrea.

p.s. can you believe, all the vendors had lunch served to them by Terri!!!

Scales Zoo · 07-04-04, 09:48 PM

Yeah, Bonnie P. - can you beleive Terri served dinner to all the vendors - wow, now that is really cool.

I can see a friendly competition will start to emerge to see who can do more to improve the shows. I think Walter should do fire dancing - or hang heavy stuff off peircings.
