Years ago a friend of my dad's turned his farm into a big craft show called the Shaker Woods festival. It attracts 10's of thousands of people to the area every August. His step daughter runs it now and she and I are very involved in the local Chapter of Safari Club International. Her interest in hunting has lead her to want to do an Outdoor event at the Shaker Woods grounds.
So for the last 6 months or so a group us have been working on having an Outdoor Expo. All outdoor activities will be represented; Hunting, fishing, boating, camping, etc. It will be a very family oriented event with activities for all ages. 3D shoots, calling contests, seminars, music, raffles(benefiting non-profits). Other activities are still in the planning stage. A good sized outdoor retailer (who I can't name just yet) is onboard and has promised some very nice gifts for kids.
It is scheduled for the weekend of July 16-17. Location is in Columbiana, 5 miles off the turnpike exit 239, about 1/2 between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. I hope some here will attend, maybe we can meet up.
If any of you are interested in having your outdoor related business or your sport men's club/conservation organization participate pm me and I'll put you in touch with right people.
