I had no idea there were betta shows and such! That's so cool, although I guarantee they don't have anything like that around where I live..Nothing cool ever happens here. I could start my own, of course, but I only know one other member from this board who lives relatively close..Everyone else I know just thinks I'm crazy for obsessing over bettas!

You can look up local clubs on the ibcbettas.org site. Look under chapters to find affiliated groups in your area.

Unless you live near a large city it probably is going to involve some driving to join groups like this. I have to drive 4 hours from college to my parents house and then another 2 hours from there to ATL to go to GBBA meetings... but I think its worth it. Especially if you want to breed.. it really helps to be able to talk to people who can mentor you and offer advise.
