The largest outdoor activity show in the Texas Lake County will pull ashore each January  as the Longview Chamber od Commerce hosts the  Annual East Texas Outdoor Expo.

Nichols Marine is the official sponsor of this year’s exhibits which include the latest in recreational vehicles, boats and boating accessories, camping, fishing and outdoor recreation.

More than 60,000 square feet of indoor space at the Maude Cobb Activity Center and the Exhibit Hall, plus outdoor exhibit space at the Exhibit Hall will be available for the public to view all three days.

As always, the expo will offer several new attractions, including:

  • Bubble runners are inflatable balls people can crawl inside.  Once someone is inside the ball,  it is filled with air and sealed with an airtight and watertight zipper.  Then, that ball is rolled in inflatable pools - and the occupant can run around like a hamster without getting wet.
  • A four-pod bungee trampoline is an unique attraction tht will allow participants to easily and quickly sour to new heights.  The pods are filled with air, which allows them to function as mini-moonwalks for expo visitors who want to rise to the occasion.
  • Camel Rides are usually found only in faraway exotic lands.  But now, East Texas youngsters and their parents will get the chance to enjoy this unique form of transportation right here in Longview.
  • Longhorn rides also will be available at the expo.  Let your youngsters climb aboard these special animals for an unforgettable ride.
Returning Attractions:
Clowns also will be returning once again to entertain specators and display their balloon art.  Johnny Cace's Seafood and Steakhouse will serve food and beverages at Maude Cobb and the Exhibit Hall.

 

Show hours are noon to 8 p.m. Friday; 9 a.m. – 8 p.m. Saturday; and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. An adult pass is $6, children ages 6 – 12  pass is $2 and 5 and younger get in free. Admission is good for both buildings.
