If you haven’t found time to head out to an outdoors expo yet, or if you’re one of those people who like to follow the weeks-long show circuit around the state, your attention ought to shift to Aroostook County this weekend.
The Presque Isle Fish and Game Club will hold its annual Sportsman’s Show at the University of Maine at Presque Isle’s Gentile Building on Saturday (9 a.m.-5 p.m.) and Sunday (9 a.m.-4 p.m.) Admission is $5 per person, with everyone age 10 and younger getting in free.
The show will feature more than 75 exhibitors from Maine, New Brunswick, Labrador, Quebec, and across New England.
Among the attractions: An L.L. Bean tent sale, the presence of the L.L. Bean Bootmobile, a presentation from Hal Blood of Big Woods Bucks, and food and table seating from the Riverside Restaurant.
And if you don’t get a chance to check out the Presque Isle show, don’t fret: You’ll get another shot at an outdoor expo the next week.
