INTERGROOM 2003 Competition Results
There were 77 entries in the “Intergroom International
Groomer of the Year” Competition, 52 in the “Rising Star” Competition,
and 8 (cats!) in the new “Feline Fantasy” Competition.
It was our pleasure to introduce the very first Cat Grooming
Competition at INTERGROOM 2003. It was met with great interest, several brave
groomers, an enthusiastic Sponsor in Kim Laube, and a perfect Judge in Shirlee
Kalstone. Many spectators showed their interest in “watching” as well as the
results. A decision to change the time of the Competition next year so as to
allow groomers in the dog grooming competitions to compete was greeted with huge
applause.
We
had 70 vendors taking a total of 148 - “plus” booth spaces. Several new
venders were in attendance and it was nice to see new faces. A new record
number of attendees for INTERGROOM, over 2,400, made the day and the weekend for
exhibitors. Many vendors commenting it was their best show ever! I just love
to hear that…
Prizes for classes and Special awards were as listed in the
catalog – with one exception – “PetEdge” and NOT their old name “New England
Serum” sponsored our Best American Groomer. Somehow, I can’t get used to their
new name!
Next
year - same location, more cat "stuff".
