Marquette, MI – April 6, 2018 – We started off bright and early this morning to pump up excitement for Northern Michigan’s largest indoor recreation show of the year. We had 103-FXD’s Luke G broadcasting live at the NMU Superior Dome from 10a – 3pm. Luke was on-air to tell listeners about what’s to come at this weekends U.P. Boat, Sport & RV Show. He also covered general admission details and even talked to a few vendors this morning!
After much anticipation vendors are all set up and the doors are open for the 25th Annual U.P. Boat, Sport & RV Show. The Dome has been the home of the show for all 25 years and is once again completely filled up by vendors from Michigan and Northern Wisconsin. Each booth displays the latest and greatest from the outdoor recreation world as well as unique features from the businesses and spring discounts. There are also other booths like Elder Agency and Decatur Dairy. Until 7pm tonight, The Outdoor Show’s Adam Carpenter is hosting his show live from the Dome interviewing some vendors including Marquette County’s Hilltop RV Superstore and Marinette Wisconsin’s Nest Egg Marine.
The turn out for the evening has been great so far and tomorrow is expected to be even larger. The parking lot is packed and kids are loving the live trout pond. Attendees can’t find a selection like this anywhere else, any time of the year! No matter what your sport or hobby is, there is something for you. They’ve got mountain bikes, climbing gear, camping equipment, fishing and hunting gear, boats, RVs, kayaks, and even motorcycles.
There are tons of giveaways going on as well so make sure to stop by each booth and see what you could win. We’ve got our Silverado Summer Giveaway truck from Frei Chevrolet at their booth so swing by and see it in person. You can register to win at Frei or the Great Lakes Radio booth near the Trout Pond. We’ll be giving away our grand prize in mid July and one lucky winner will have a brand new 2018 Silverado on their drive way for a paid 2-year lease! This weekend is an exclusive chance to sing up for our giveaway so many sure to stop by and get your name in before anyone else.
Make sure to watch our Facebook tomorrow for live video from the event. We’ll be out interviewing more vendors so don’t miss out on hearing right from the source! Tomorrow we will also have Luke G back again to broadcast live with Eric Scott following Luke to broadcast in to the evening. Listen in on 103.3 WFXD if you can’t make it down!
