We're so excited to be holding our 12th Chicago Swap Meet at Official's Time Out in Hoffman Estates on January 14th. In years past attendance has topped over 300 people crazy to buy, sell and trade everything from lures to locators. Start time is officially 7PM but it might be a good idea to show a little earlier if you are hoping for a spot to display your wares for sale.

We will be holding a raffle and giving away some great product from St. Croix rods and Tackle Industries. Rods, maybe some reels, shirts, hats and a big pile of baits will all be raffled off. BRING CANNED GOODS as they will be donated to the Elk Grove Food Pantry and doing so will get you tickets for the raffle. Last year we had 2 SUV loads of food and we'd like to double that!

Hope to see you all there and please feel free to email me at [email protected] with any questions!

I won't be able to make it this year. I got the opportunity to go rifle hunting for does in Southern Iowa and I can't pass it up. This is a awesome way to get some really cool stuff while helping those who really need it. I'd like to see so much food donated, poor Slamr's new SUV won't hold it all!!!!!!! Jeremy'll be there with his Ford for overflow I am sure!!!!

Do you need to be 21?  I’m bringing my 15 year old son to the show and then we’re thinking of going to the swap

I don't believe you have to be 21. It's in a bowling alley eating area. (so classy)
