Second Annual
Swap Meet Renamed and Scheduled
The 2nd annual Des Moines Izaak Walton League Fishing, Hunting,
Outdoor Sports, Boating and Gun Show, (formerly called Swap
Meet), has been scheduled for January 26 and 27, 2008. The show
will feature fishing and hunting gear of all kinds; boats, guns,
fishing and hunting resorts, archery equipment, wildlife art and
outdoor furniture.
This will be a great family event with laser guns to test your
shooting skills, hunting and fishing raffle items, 2008 hunting
& fishing licenses for sale, and DNR seminars, plus archery
clinics, for the kids, with Outdoors Dan. We will also have food
and refreshments for sale.
Show hours are: Saturday 9 am to 5 pm, Sunday 9 am to 3 pm. (Be
sure to bring your knives for sharpening)
Admission fees: Adults $3 and ages 12 and under free.
There are still some exhibit spaces available at $30/table for
Ike members and $40 for non-members. For more information or to
reserve exhibit space please contact Sonny Satre at 515-480-1728
or email to “sonnysatre@mchsi.com”
Rifles and shotguns needed
The Ikes will have a table at the show to sell rifles and
shotguns for any member wanting to get rid of one they don’t use
anymore. We will try to sell your firearm at the price you
request. We have experts who can help you with setting a price,
if needed. If interested, contact Wimpy Stifel at 515-226-9558
or Sonny Satre at 515-480-1728. (Fed regulations don’t allow
us to sell handguns)
