The exhibitor list for the Mid-South Forestry Equipment Show, set for August 21-22 near Starkville, Miss., continues to expand. A new layout will make this year’s event more compact and convenient, according to Show Manager John Auel. Static exhibits will be located in the partially tree-shaded area formerly used for parking, while the area formerly used for static exhibits will become the parking lot. Registration and smaller exhibits formerly housed in the pavilion will be relocated in tents that connect the parking and the static areas. The live demo section, featuring lots of mature trees, will adjoin the static area. Food trucks will be stationed in the static area to offer a greater variety of food and to quickly fill orders. Contests, cash prizes, kids’ activities and continuing education opportunities will round out the program.
Registration is for both days is $25 per adult at the gate; $20 per adult for those who pre-register on-line beginning May 1 at midsouthforestry.org.
