Who is attending???? I plan to attend again and really enjoy the vendor hall. Its a good way to deal with cabin fever. Feb. 21 In Madison.
I just finished my donation and want to encourage others to come up with a donation. The money goes to a Great cause.
like last year, its leather chopper mitts with removable liners. This year They are festooned with Realtree, WTA embroidered patch and a little inking. The liners are Polartec Fleece and the mitts are a buttery split cowhide. Silicone waterproofed.

Once again your craftsmanship is outstanding Ron. Those are nice mitts.
I have not made anything but I am in possession of a side quiver that Rick Krattinger made for the banquet. It sure looks like a nice quiver and by chance he also has an archer on it as well.

Ron, That's cool! Now you need to get Mike Mitten to sign it and it will be a collectors item...hint, hint.

The mittens are great,but that snow shoe is the coolest thing I've seen in a while.

It sure was a fine showing. We had so many vendors show up last minute we had to ad another row plus fit them in where ever. I hope everyone had a good time and went home with a prize. Thanks to all that came out.
