I'd say they do a bad job advertising, I live in Kettle Falls and work in Colville and never here about them except on the forums here.

You can pick up the Huckleberry around here also, but not the same as the local Colville paper he was referring to. I dont have a subscription to the local paper but they also send out "the sun" every week which is basically the local paper ads/classifieds with the news articles, didnt see any big ad for the gun show in it but it was listed in the classifieds.

So for the last 3-4 days the Weather D-bags have been saying a chance of snow flurries for the weekend .Now this morning it turned into a winter storm warning with 8-10 inches possible for up here by Saturday night .I wish I could have had one job in my life where I could be as bad as a weatherman is at there job , and not been fired .

Blackfire is right .Its indoors .I just hate to see the roads all crappy . Like Blackfire I have always done well at there show .I don't do a table .But I know people there with tables .And some of my stuff usually ends up on someones table .This year I will even have some cash in my pocket .

the worse the roads, the better the show. REDNECKS and hillbillys dont care about snow on roads.......thats why you learn to DRIFT in drivers ed...or at least, i did...the Colville show is ALWAYS good for seeing people too. dealer parking is interesting though...but then again, i have a 7x14 enclosed trailer behind a dodge beast that doesnt turn well...
