"as you guys know. There is a sportsman show at the Oncenter this weekend. This is a new show and we are sponsoring a small Ice expo Expo with in the show. Our hope is that we can build on this to become a much bigger ice Expo in the future. What I would ask of you all is to come down and check the show out please don't be disappointed it will be a good show overall. Both exhibit halls are full the promoter wants to put together old school show with less Outfitters and more selling retailers I'm looking very forward to this because I like his vision. But it will take the support of all of you to help us build a future we will be there clam will be there and a few others to begin with I have some great deals on some jigs some rods and some other items and we have a fairly large showing. This promoter went so far as to purchase the parking at the Oncenter so the parking for you will be free I realize is going to be good fishing Saturday but I hope that you all come on down and check us out.
