Shows in and around New England?


I was wondering if anyone had any info on shows in the New England area. I'm in southeast Mass and stopped by the Little Rhody and Sturbridge shows this past fall and I was hoping there were some local spring shows.

Thanks!
Julie

Hi Julie, I live in S.E. Mass. I know of this one coming up. I got this info off the internet a couple of months ago. We'll try to make it. We were also at the Sturbridge show.

Hi Jay,

Have you been to this swap before? How big is it? I know the buildings pretty small, I'm wondering how many birds are usually brought to sell and by how many people.

Thanks!

No. This would be our first time there, but you could call that number and ask. They could probably answer your questions. I haven't even looked to see if I am working that weekend or not. Hope not. Last time, for the Sturbridge show, I was able to switch weekends with someone.

Oh, ok. I'll call tomorrow and find out. I ended up having to work the day of the Sturbridge show, but I was able to make it there Friday. I usually don't work Sundays so I'll probably be able to make it.

I would love to go, but just did mapquest. It's 3 + hrs. one way, and would be longer than I'd want to travel in my old Jimmy (it's tired, and I'd be afraid of it kicking the bucket)

I hear Ya. Been there. That is a bit of a distance. It should only be about 45 min. for us. Maybe a little less.The shows are kinda fun to go to. The Sturbridge show was my first one, and it's also a chance to pick up a few supplies without paying for the shipping.

Doors open at 9:00 a.m.I had read online earlier this winter that it would be in Feb., but I guess it's going to be in March. [b]AND I'M OFF THAT WEEKEND!!![b] So we will probably be able to go! Hope you can make it too.
