The campground to the north is full hookup with shower facilities

There is a shower on the grounds

Will be there Friday moring. John

I will be there Friday and Saturday

Always a well organized and well ran convention.

Sounds like a good time. But unfortunately we won't make it this year. Our son is getting married on Saturday

I hope to make it down on Saturday.

Hope to make it both days

yep was going to set up my tent. might be a problem getting it dry when time to go. chance for rain sunday too. don't want to fool with taking care of a wet tent. still going just not camping. not driving a truck with a sleeper anymore. did that at our convention once and nta once. that works pretty good

Will b there Saturday

That's gonna suck for having a good place to do demos! Maybe Eldon will preform his majic again!, with an inside demo area!

I always thought KS got it right holding their convention in OCT. There's a little chill in the air, colors are starting to turn, harvest is firing up, and folks minds are starting to wander towards traditional fall activities like trapping. Its definitely a magical time of year, and if I was king we would have 6 months of May, and 6 Months of Septober.






I cant make it this year because of harvest, but Greg will be there. He's giving a demo on fur care, grading, and harvesting. Also, if you want to make some more money for traps, supplies, or fall hunting adventures bring your extra antlers along and Greg will trade you money for them.


Wish I was going to be there to help Lee get rid of those grape squeezing's.

I believe the Demo area is covered

We will either drive out late Thursday or early Friday, depending on ball games. Looking forward to seeing y'all.

I am looking forward to being there Thursday, I will have about 600 used traps with me!

Scott

Will be there Friday Lee, see ya then! Wife and I may make it for breakfast buffet.

Will do Lee will be there Saturday with the wife and kids.

I will be there in the morning hope the rain holds ..

good show and had a good time just could not stay long

Is there an admission fee?

no

It was a great experience wish I could’ve stayed longer but the kids weren’t having it. It was great to meet some of y’all.

My first Kansas convention, but I thought it was a pretty good one. I appreciate those who put in the work to make it happen, and who made me feel welcome. Thank You! I tailgated at the event, and made some sales and some purchases. Met a lot of good people from all over, KS, NE, and even some MO boys showed. Good times. Just too darn wet, windy, and cold. It's all part of the trapping experience for me though, and I wouldn't have wanted to miss it!

I want to thank all the great people I met and the knowledge they freely shared. Made a new trapper feel right at home.

Yes good convention, nice facility.

Scott
