Another opportunity for Destry, if the Board would approve a limited production of table cloths (for a fee) I'll bet among the members there is a market.

We have done Pheasant Fest for over 20 years. 23,000 to 30,000 attendees see Parker shotguns and memorabilia. We have stories about it here and in Parker Pages. We are often on local television.
The last time we exhibited was Feb 2020 then the Covid hit. The show was cancelled in 2021. This year the show is in Omaha but with so much Covid again and so much exposure , I do not want to risk it even with vaccinations. We normally present 35 to 45 Parkers of all grades and gauges. We have shown the Czar gun and John Browning’s A grade. We have had Parker rifled barrel guns , short barrels , long barrels, high grade 410’s , the rare ones. We do not sell guns , we only exhibit and promote . We show the yearly raffle gun , sell tickets and have historically been the largest seller of tickets. I miss leading the Parker presentation but with Covid sweeping through again and potentially leaving long lasting effects on health I do not think it wise to be two feet away from large numbers of people masked or unmasked , vaccinated or not , and we know that some people reject any protection . |

A further comment. This is a PGCA exhibit and we are under the banner of the PGCA. We do not sell guns , we inform and present. We do not low ball people who ask about value of their guns then try to buy them cheap.
We get 30 running feet of booth space and fill it up. I have four 5 gun tiered racks and we fill those and more. Charlie Herzog joined us for many years with his spectacular guns. We have a chosen team of people who are knowledgeable , study TPS and answer lots of questions. We like Pheasant Fest because attendees want to know about the guns and hunting . |

Looks like a nice venue to attend. Does this event come around the Ohio-Maryland-Pennsylvania area? I also noticed that the PGCA must have made up several of these tablecloths for certain events.
