The Expo will feature an elk taxidermy demonstration, educational displays, craft and art booths, good food, and a marketplace with the latest in outdoor gear. Master sand sculptor Chuck Feld will present "How to Build a Sand Castle" and Gene "Chili Pepper" Roberts, from Dallas, Texas, will hold a chili-cooking demonstration, along with many other activities for the entire family.
