MPKS 2020 Tosai Auction
May 30th – Noon Preview, 1:00 PM Auction
The Midwest Pond & Koi Society club holds this annual event to allow MPKS members to purchase a high quality koi fish at a better price. The auction has about 60-70 fish and the starting price averages $20. There is always a nice selection of koi fish including long fin koi.
The Tosai auction is a great way to get a quality one year old Koi at very reasonable price.
