The Luverne Elementary School gym is the site of this year's Rock County Sportsman's Show on Saturday, Feb. 10.
The Sportsman's Show, open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., is an event for both avid outdoor enthusiasts and the average family interested in outdoor activities.
Nationally-recognized bow hunter and nature photographer Judd Cooney will present two seminars. Missouri River fishing guide Gary Allen will also provide a seminar and be on hand to answer questions.
Other seminars offer information on ice fishing techniques, wild turkey hunting, plug pulling for walleye, lake fishing, whitetail deer and elk hunting, and Missouri River hunting.
Plans are underway to offer several youth seminars and possibly a separate exhibitor fair geared toward youth.
Advance tickets are available from committee members or at the Rock County Extension Office, Luverne. Tickets for adults are $2 with children 5 and younger free.
Proceeds from the event will go to Big Buddies of Rock County, the Hills-Beaver Creek/Steen Baseball Association, Patriot Partners, Steen Community Park Committee and Hills Lions Club.
