2010 Northwest Traditonal & Primitive Archery Expo

Unfortunately we will not be having a 2010 event.  At this time we feel the economy has not recovered to the point where we can meet the expectations of the public, participants and the vendors.

We hope to establish a more formal entity in 2010 and be able to look to grant support for the venture in 2011; please check back to this website for further updates.   Fill out the form below if you would like to receive updates by email.
