Preparedness Expos

Two Preparedness Expos are coming up. The local expo in Colorado stopped happening but North Carolina and Idaho are still having their events. If in the area, it may be worth checking them out.


This is a great event. The class list covers so many topics.I would love to attend this class: Secret Livestock of Survival- How to Raise the 10 Best Choices for Retreat and Homestead Livestock
I wonder what they think the 10 best livestock are. Here is the class list: Preparedness and Homestead Classes - PrepperCamp

Isn't Northern Idaho having a surge in Covid-19 cases? I saw the other day where the hospitals were given permission to place patients in conference rooms because of lack of space. Think I'll skip it, for a variety of reasons #1 Not traveling nor attending large gatherings at this time and #2 NC is a lot closer,,,but still not going!

 

Thanks for this info MM34 ,, I'd really like to make that Saluda meet ,, I've got a lot of stuff going on throughout those dates ,, but I'm going to try and make it there if I can move some stuff around. Thank you for the heads up on this .

 

Think we're going to Mammoth Springs for the 24-26 weekend to play some music on a rock beside the river.

 

What's the farthest you and your band travel to play ,,

 

So far, South Dakota but you never know what's up around the next bend.

 

Thank you. We might be able to make the Saluda event. Never been to a prep expo.

 

I've had the shot, but still not going......besides I've been at this for over 20 years and I know more about what I have, want, need and can afford than anybody else!
