Convention End
The deadline for advertising in the Program is May 1st
The Host hotel is sold out, but I have a list of others I can sent to anyone who needs it.
Lots going on Saturday afternoon, so if you leave early you will miss a lot of fun and entertainment.

The "Wines of the Trapping World" is going to be something different and that committee is putting a lot into it. We wanted to feature wines from all over, but with not being able to ship wine it made it hard. But, if you have a wine you would like to donate and are coming to the FTA please bring it along. Or you could send it with someone who is. I will also be at the Texas Show and I'm sure there will be someone from Ks. at some of the other shows this spring who can pick it up. Thanks and hope to see you there.

It's on the Ad above, but hard to read., It is on the FTA web Site.

That is not the same page I get when I go to the FTA website and click on Convention.

I have deleted my browsing history and deleted cookies but I am still getting a different page than the one shown above.

Basically the same, just different format to fit the page, I believe. They are missing the last update on vendor list:

3 Tracks Turkey Calls
K D W & P
Predator Potion
South Dakota Trappers Assoc.
Tennessee Fur Harvesters Assoc.
Wyoming State Trappers

I am looking forward to it. Last time it was in Lawrence I bought some snares from Rally Hess. I can make my own. Have put together thousands of them. But the price he charged, and the quality, I didnt hesitate buying them and was not disappointed. Would like to buy more. Hopefully somebody will be there with the same quality.

For you guys that don't know Matt Peek the guy is worth listening too. If ever trappers had a friend, and a VERY knowledgeable friend in a state wildlife management dept, Matt Peek is that guy.

Sure would be nice if someone would update the FTA website. I know of several vendors that are not on the Convention page list and who knows what else might not be up to date.
