2014 LOTSA EXPO FINAL WRAPUP

[Tim Bromund]

LOTSA  would like to take a moment to once again thank our Vendors that donated product for both the many door prizes that were given away at the Expo and for our Kids Classes/Seminars we taught at the LOTSA Marketplace at the Greater Niagara Fishing and Outdoor Expo in Niagara Falls on January 24-26.

 

As in years past, the reason we conduct the Expo is to raise money to help cover the expenses of running our Olcott Pen Rearing Project.  The Greater Niagara Expo donated a portion of each Expo Admission ticket sold on Sunday and LOTSA Receive a total of $2,706.00 from the Show.

 

In addition to the donation from the Expo, We would also like to sincerely thank Chuck Booker of Big Chinook1 Fishing.  Chuck solicited donations of various prizes and raffled those prizes off at his booth in the main room of the Expo throughout the 3 days of the Show and his efforts raised an additional $500.00 which he donated to the Pen Rearing Project, bringing our total for the weekend to $3,206.00 donated to the Olcott Pen Rearing Project.

 

Thank you to everyone, both our Vendors and those of you that braved one of the nastiest weather weekends of this miserable winter to come out and support LOTSA and the Expo.
