The updated master list of outdoors shows, classes and swap meets can be found here with some updates. Here’s a rundown of notable events this week:
- The Northern Illinois Boat Show is Thursday through Sunday, March 2-5, at the Lake County Fairgrounds in Grayslake.
- The Northwest Indiana Fishing & Outdoor Expo is Friday through Sunday, March 3-5, at the Lincoln Center in Highland, Ind. I hope to see it for the first time.
- The Indoor Fishing Flea Market, a fundraiser sponsored by Chicagoland Muskie Hunters and RMHS Parent Teacher Organization, is 8 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday, March 4, at Rolling Meadows High School. I would like to go, but can’t because I’m taking in a seminar on pruning fruit trees. I have a special place for this flea market as the first show I visited after the pandemic shutdowns.
- The Illinois Smallmouth Alliance’s Bronzeback Blowout is Saturday, March 4, at the Elmhurst American Legion.
