CGC Officers / International Fancy Guppy Association
The
Chesapeake Guppy Club holds monthly meetings ( with the exception of
June, July and August).
The CGC
Membership is dedicated to helping others to successfully breed and enjoy
fancy guppies. Our members range from those who have a tank in the family
living room to those who have a whole room devoted to the breeding of that
elusive IFGA Best of Show fish. Among the CGC membership are nationally
recognized breeders; a member of the Guppy Hall of Fame; three IFGA Master
Breeders; published authors on selective fancy guppy breeding, Senior IFGA
Judges and Assistant Judges; past winners of the coveted IFGA Guppy Man of
the Year award; and several breeders who have won or placed in the IFGA Annual Class Championships for various colors. We have members who
concentrate on showing, some who concentrate on developing new color
varieties and some who just have trouble concentrating!!! Within the vast
array and amount of experience, you are sure to find someone to share you
interest or to help you out with advice.
Dues are $20 annually for Full membership. Membership entitles you to attend all of the CGC meetings, full voting privileges, buying opportunities at our meeting auctions and access to any club discounts with suppliers and access to the CGC Yahoo Group.
We also offer Junior membership (non-voting, but includes all other privileges).
We also offer a special membership for the Supporting Member. This membership is for 5 years with the 6th year free at a cost of $100. These members will be highlighted on the membership page with the date of their initial year of membership. This membership category was started to help build our treasury for show expenses.

The International Fancy Guppy Association is the parent organization of local guppy clubs across the U.S. and abroad. The Chesapeake Guppy Club is sanctioned by the IFGA. The IFGA publishes a periodical which contains info on all club activities as well as show announcements and show rules. The IFGA sets the Show Standard for the various types of show guppies, upholds strict criteria for training and testing of judges and governs over most show activities. IFGA sanctioned shows are hosted annually by local clubs, including a Mid Year Meeting and the IFGA Annual.

Meetings are hosted by club members which affords the opportunity to see various guppy set ups. We hold club auctions at every meeting with all funds going to the club. These auctions range from show quality breeding stock to fish supplies. We also try to make an educational presentation at every meeting concerning all aspects of the guppy hobby. A little bit of food and a lot of chatter is enjoyed by all. The CGC
also holds an IFGA sanctioned show in April of every year.
