The New York State Trappers Association holds an annual convention every year at the Herkimer County fairgrounds in Frankfort NY. This website is just a year old so we only currently have pictures from 2005 and up. Each years convention will get its own page with info about that years events. You can get to these pages by clicking on the patches below. We are always looking for volunteers to help us set up and take down so if your interested just let us know. I hope you enjoy taking a look back at the conventions past, and look forward to the conventions of tomorrow.
2005
This is the first year that the site has pictures for. As always it was a great convention. Everyone enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Good turnout, good weather, good fun.

2006
2006 marked the first convention without Dave Corse who passed away in 2005. He headed up the annual convention for many years and worked the loudspeaker. Vice-President Bill Ballou set up a convention committee to take over planning for the convention. They did an excellent job and the turnout was great. Good work guys.

2007
This was a great year. Earlier in the year NYSTA hosted the NTA NE Regional Convention. It was a big draw and a lot of fun. Skip forward to September and the same excitement was still in the air. The fairgrounds had finally completed their brand new pole barn which is where the demo's will now be housed. All in all the turn out was great and there was great fun to be had all around.

2008
A lot of changes were seen this year. The convention started on Thursday and ended on Saturday night with no Sunday. It seemed to work pretty well and looks like something that could be permanently implemented. As always We had a great group of volunteers that worked their tails off. As always a big thank you goes out to all the people that make this convention possible.

2009
What a year it was! We broke all the records this year and had one of the best conventions ever! I know we always say that this year was the best ever but this time we really mean it. the weather was great, the turnout was great, and thanks to some new organization brought on by this years convention committee chairman things ran smoother than ever and the vendors and tailgaters were happy too. Can't wait to see whats in store for 2010, see you there!
