During the past 5 years myself along with my son and dad have been going down to the Buckarama in Atlanta every August. For those that are not familiar with this event let me explain. Here in the peach state this is basically the time frame that all us hunters start our preparations for the coming hunting seasons. With that in mind all of the area retailers as well as out of state companies put together an expo consisting of anything that is associated with the great outdoors. If you love the outdoors you gotta go to this! I have learned through some of the vendors that have booths at the expo every year that there will be alot more of the survival items and such this year. It is usually held during the latter part of August,the third week. Around the GPS rollover date come to think of it! Just thought I would pass this along.
