I was 14 years old at the 1978 convention in Clearfield Pa. I attended with my grade school science teacher Neighbor and Trapping mentor. I was in the big brother program as my dad was paralyzed. I was standing right next to him when the raffle tickets were drawn. He won first place, a 1978 CJ5 red Jeep. His wife drove the car home and we drove the Jeep from Clearfield to Michigan after a extra day as the local dealer had yet to install the roll bar and rag top. RIP Benny R Lisenbee I am still trapping, and still receive the unbroken subscription to FFG you gave me at 13 years old along with a dozen Blake and Lamb #1 long springs.
you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

We all need to pay it forward like your mentor did! I took a young lad with us to the NTA this year, and will be mentoring him this season. Hard to find kids that are interested these days....but they are out there. Just gotta look!

I first went to the one in Marshalltown in 1981 and got totally hooked. Made probably 16 of the next 20. Haven't been to one in a while but I'll probably go to Spencer. 81 was my first year as well. I was a freshman in HS and bought a Ferret from a vendor at NTA, cant remember who. LOL
