[Trapper John]

Wingshooter,
To bad I didn't know of this soon I could of had the Washington State Trappers Association there for you guys.
September is one busy month for the trappers association with us holding booths in three county fairs and holding a couple of trapper training classes.
Next time you have something like this coming up let me know in advance and I'll get the trappers association to man a booth for you.
Plus I make custom game calls (duck, goose, crow, predator, etc.) that I will donate to an event like this.

I'll be over that way this weekend, maybe I'll see if I can pull myself away for a little while and stop in.
