2020 ANNUAL NW TRAPPERS CONVENTION – THUNDER BAY
NWOPA together with the Thunder Bay Geology & Lapidary Club participated in the NW Trappers Convention held on March 6 & 7 in the Coliseum Building at the Canadian Lakehead Exhibition (CLE) in Thunder Bay. This event was held prior to the advisement of the widespread outbreak of the COVID 19 virus. As always, the convention promotes education, awareness and management practices of the fur industry and was attended by trappers, hunters, fishermen, and other outdoor enthusiasts from the local area as well as northwestern Ontario. There are a variety of displays, demonstrations, and raffles. Friday was a quieter day but Saturday proved to be busier at our booth where inquiries were received about local mining and exploration. The rock & mineral samples displayed at the NWOPA and Lapidary Society booths continuously draw interest and questions from convention attendees. NWOPA was once again proud to share a booth with the Thunder Bay Geology & Lapidary Club at this year’s event and looks forward to future participation together at next year’s NW Trappers Convention.
Cyndee Komar, Secretary, NWOPA
