The address is in this add. Do a map quest.  Go down 131 to 94 then west on 94.  It is fairly easy to find.

Is there a "head count" for who might be attending from the gang here?  Do you guys have a "meeting" place or just wander around?

I attended the Kzoo bow show this year but never did get to meet anyone and would love to put a few faces with names.

Thanks~

Thanks guys...I hope to make it, haven't planned any lodging but since it's just a little over an hour away maybe I'll just make a day trip of it.

I just finished up my first selfbow.  A Trade Bow for the PA Gang...maybe I'll take it along and shoot it a bit more.

Safe travels all~

Bring a tent if you can. Half the fun is sitting around the fire talking with other archers.

Lee, I will be in the vendor area with Art of Ishi, Mike Cook, who is an expert flintknapper.  We will be doing a little knapping.  Stop by.

Jon, I'll to sure to swing by...I want to knapp in a bad way so that's an extra reason for me to make the rounds.

Thanks!
