Friday, September 1st, 2000 - Arrived in the Alberta city of Calgary for the 39th annual version of this prestigous competition. Headed for the host hotel and that evening's weigh-in. The promoters Armand & Debbie Huneault took a very hands on approach and catered to the needs of both athletes and fans, from being there for registration, arranging for meals condusive to dieting bodybuilders to a shuttle bus service to the venue the day of the show. Cowboy hats were the dress code of the day with competitors provided with stylish black ones for the next evening's Parade of Athletes to open the finals. Felt right at home at the weigh-ins, having lost count of all the current and former competitors who have graced this website. Laura, Sheila, Jodi, Dawn, etc. Once the ball got rolling it was clear that this was going to be one quality contest. A few sights below from Friday night. |

2nd, 2000 - The day of the show, arrived early at the Jack Singer Concert
Hall,
part of the beautiful Calgary Performing Arts Centre. The pre-judging went fairly quickly as far as the women were concerned, as posing routines were limited to the evening competition. Left a lot of time to hob-nob and get to know some of the athletes and interesting spectators in attendance. Comments about the actual competition are included in the respective pages and with the photos. Enough with the intros, click "Next Page" to continue with the coverage. |
