Right Here This Weekend: Outdoor Expo March 30-31

For 15 years, In&Out Magazine has been the definitive source of “Everything that’s going on” in and out of the community. We thank you, our readers, as well as the businesses that support the magazine through advertising, for that opportunity. But with little going on, and many businesses suspending or canceling their ads during the Covid-19 crisis, we are suspending publication of the magazine and web sites for the month of May.

those things you keep saying you should see or do will be right here this weekend at the annual Outdoor Expo. The event will be packed with activities for kids and adults, featuring more than 150 exhibitors from outdoor organizations and vendors to government agencies. Also, antlers, hides, skulls and head mounts from animals donated, seized by law enforcement or killed by cars, will be auctioned to fund wildlife crime efforts.
