It’s only the middle of April. Many conventions don't happen until August or later. Too early to give up,hope.

Cattaraugus county Trapper's rendezvous in Western NY is in the beginning of August and im still holding out hope. If it weren't for this forum and conventions and rendezvous I wouldn't talk to too many like minded people. God bless all that hold up our traditions and use our sustainable natural resources

That state has liked holding the NTAs. The NTA goes to whoever puts in the bids.

I sure hope not, we can spread out, I suspect attendance to be off.

My body belongs to my work.

The # of people buying into throwing away freedom, HARD WON FREEDOM at that, for some pretend safety simply blows my mind.....

I've never really liked crowds of people anyway but a Rendezvous of like minded folks was one of the gatherings I would go to...

This crap is completely out of control....heads need to roll! I don't think we'll ever find out the truth, about a LOT of things...

I do think, if he's still open, I'll have spend my stimulus at Trapper Paul's.....hope he likes my cammo face mask and doesn't shoot at me....hahahaha


Keep your boots dry and your powder too.

I remember when a fur check was reality.....now I'm just trapping for the love of it.

Best Regards,

JT

The problem I see Is If you have been out of work for 4 months are you going to afford things like trapping supplies. And In the past people traveled 100s of miles to go to these conventions. Are they still going make that drive? Are the dealers going to travel 400 and 500 miles to attend these conventions. Haven't heard anything about the FT convention but that Is In June so that might not happen.
And then we have a fur market that's In a downward spiral. Lots of things to take Into consideration.
