Vendors displayed RV’s, boats, guns, apparel, landscaping products, and more. Hands-on activities included ax throwing, target practice, casting, knot tying and archery for the kids. The first 100 attendees received gifts from Crystal River Kayak and Dive Center, Two Men and a Truck, Cracker House Winery, and Bass Pro Shops.

Parking was free for attendees and admission was $5 for adults 18 and over. A portion of the admission proceeds went to charity partner 10 CAN Inc. to help veterans and first responders fight PTSD through outdoor activities.
