Its getting to that time of the year when the Outdoor/Big Buck/Gun shows start happening. I'll post what little I know and invite anyone else with info to add to this thread.
These events are ones in Eastern Ontario, or those that I'm participating in.
February 24 - 27
Ottawa Boating & Outdoor Show.
Normally this is a pretty dismal event for hunters and shooters, but they're promising more for us this year. There will be two Turkey seminars held on the weekend.
March 19/20
Bass Pro trophy scoring event.
April 10
Little Britain trophy scoring event.
April 8, 9, 10
Carp Fishing and Outdoor Show
The on-line notice says its the 9, 10, 11, but it normally starts friday and ends sunday. This is normally much better than the Ottawa show.
April 16/17
Valley Gun & Outdoor Show
This has always been a very good gun show, and now for the second year in a row will be in Lanark.
These next ones will be happening, but I haven't heard any particulars yet.
~June~ Saugeen Shafts in Peterborough measuring event
June or July - Vankleek Hill gun show
Mid August - Eganville Gun Show
This is normally the best gun show in eastern Ontario
Mid August - Bass Pro "Fall" trophy event
Early to mid September - Carp Fall gun & outdoor show
Late October - My own club, The Grenville Fish and Game Club is planning a Gun Show at our facilities in Prescott.

I have two more dates:
Saugeen Shafts is on June 4th. VanKleek Hill will be on July 3.
