Even if the show doesnt lead to immediate sales for the businesses, it encourages people to think about spring and summer outdoor recreation, Lessard said. After seeing the show, people may come to realize the dock at the cottage needs work or a deck for barbecuing would be an essential addition to their home, and go back to see the businesses they saw at the show. Representatives from Big Brothers and Sisters Association, Camp Bickell, Timmins Therapeutic Association and Joan Caron Camp will have booths set up at the sportsman show as well. It gives the organizations an opportunity to pass out information and answer questions, Lessard said. The show will run from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.
Admission is good for the entire day.
Everyone who attends is eligible for the door prize, a barbecue from Energy Mizers.
