Hi, I’m David Petronis, President of NEACA, Inc., and I would like to inform you that our New Eastcoast Arms Collectors Associates and NEACA Arms Fair will be in the Riley Rink at Hunter Park in Manchester Center, Vermont on Saturday and Sunday, April 29 & 30. For September of 2015 we were invited by the new director at Riley Rink in Hunter Park to stage our very first Arms Fair there. The Rink is situated just a mile north of the Route 30 and Historic Route 7A traffic circle intersection in the center of town. This will be our fifth event at Riley Rink and we were quite pleased with our other shows there. However, we still need to find additional exhibitors so we can fill the 275 table capacity of this fine venue. We have space left and invite all exhibitors who are in the outdoors sporting industry or hunting, shooting, trapping or fishing sports to display at our fifth NEACA Arms Fair & Sportsman’s Expo. We will to continue with three more during 2017 the next being on July 15 & 16

We also invite outdoor photographers, artists, duck carvers, Adirondack lore makers, fly rod builders and dealers in vintage Americana or sporting goods. And, of course, this is an Arms Fair, where all sorts of militaria, edged weapons, or antique and modern firearms, ammunition and accessories can be found. With Revolutionary War and Civil War artifacts, swords and guns on hand plus collector and investment firearms to be seen this will be a walk thru history but also where you can not only view items but perhaps buy and take home a piece of that history. From research books to antique traps to a wall hanger gun for over your fireplace our Arms Fair is the place to find that certain piece you may have been searching for.

Our exhibitors also need to replace their inventory with things you may wish to bring in to our show. Plus our collectors may want to purchase your collection; one piece or the whole amount. Arms Fairs are a great way for the public to buy, sell or trade with our dealers and collectors. This will develop into the largest Arms Fair in the State of Vermont since NEACA promoted some at Green Mountain Racetrack in Pownal two decades ago. To download our flier from the web go to neaca.com and see Gun Shows.

NEACA has been conducting Antique Shows and Arms Fairs throughout the northeast since 1982 and this past August was our 103rd Arms Fair produced with 250 tables at the Saratoga Springs City Center in NY State which is straight west of our new Manchester Center Arms Fair location. We are sure our new event will be as successful as we are in Saratoga. The next City Center show will be a huge tribute to our military men and women this Memorial Day Weekend, May 27 & 28 with military displays, veterans groups, and reenactors. This will be NEACA’s 104th Arms Fair at the City Center where we wish to salute over 200 years of military history.

Doors are open for the public to browse at 9am to 5pm on Saturday and 9am to 3pm on Sunday. Admission is $8.00; Senior rate over 60 is only $7.00; Children under 14 are Free with an adult.
