Exhibitors – over 130 of them! — will have everything from augers, rods & reels, to campers, ATVs, and snowmobiles — and the outdoor gear you’ll need to use it all.

And just like at other events like the State Fair, they’re offering expo-only deals.

See the Sea Lions

Sea Lion Splash will put on entertaining and educational shows for kids and adults alike.

During each presentation, the sea lion stars demonstrate how well they have bonded with their trainers, show off their natural behaviors, and even teach kids how to recycle! Between shows, they enjoy lots of time to play with one another and their trainers in the spacious pools installed especially for them or just to lounge in the sun and relax. Under the watchful eyes of their experienced trainers, they receive round-the-clock care and attention.

Each of the sea lions being cared for by Sea Lion Splash LLC has been assigned to them by the National Marine Fisheries Service (informally known as NOAA Fisheries), a federal agency that is a division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Friday: 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM | Saturday 12:00 PM, 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM | Sunday: 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM
