Anyone know who I could talk to about getting a couple really nice, high quality cage traps there? Hoping someone will have some.

Getting everything ready to go,well not everything---I dont have room to haul everything. Looks like this may be the last time I am able to set up at the convention-getting old ain't easy.

Big Sam I was hoping to meet you at the convention, but I will be there Thursday and Friday with my son and two grandsons. Hopefully I can meet some of the guys that are on here while I am there. I will be going to as many demo's as possible. Hope everyone has safe travels to and from the Minnesota Convention and anywhere else they may be traveling.

Does anyone want/need stretchers? I have a bunch of wood stretchers for coon, mink and maybe a few fox and bobcat stretchers. I also have a bunch of wire rat stretchers. I would load some up and head up Saturday if there is interest. Otherwise, I'll just load up my better half and save the labor.

Tom is easy to spot. He will be the only guy wandering around at 5 am looking for coffee.

I will be in the VFW-American legion building---across from the 4H food building where the MTA booth is located.
