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

I don't drive to these things often ,NTA (hardly ever)but why does it seem everytime I think about going it's in Michigan?

most if not all outdoor functions, concert, festivals are all ready cancel. I wasn't planning on going to any this year but I feel bad about all the venders losing out

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'm not far if ya ever wanna hang out and bs or anything.

We'll have to get together sounds good twerker. For now I'll have to keep in touch through the his forum. Thanks

anytime,i'm only 20 min east of Olean.

the U P trappers show is july 10-11 , is still on at this time

Where is it being held?

i keep the fact none have cancelled as a positive be it grabbin at straws or not.

first couple may be sparse sailin but if they go ok--who knows.

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

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

yeah,i feel like the only one not tryin to rob a bank lately.

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.

I'm kinda hoping the opposite may happen to some extent. People will be eager to travel and spend some money after being unable to do so for months.

Indiana and a few surrounding states are eyeing an early May re-opening....If that happens, a Mid-June FTA Convention is entirely possible.

As bad as the fur market is social distancing won't be a problem.

Just telling It like It Is.

ya gotta know by now Beav. i aint good with reality.

A trapping convention is more than spending money on supplies. It can be cheap entertainment. Lots of things to look at and lots of people to talk to.

After paying ten bucks to get in, you can go the entire day without having to spend any money. Except to maybe buy lunch or a cold beverage. After being cooped up for weeks or months, might be the perfect excuse for a road trip.

We can guess all we want. The best way is if the society loosens up by say August-October and the conventions are on we will find out who goes and what they have to spend or will spend.
