The Archery Range and Retailers Organization invites its members for a best-buy opportunity. ARRO harnesses the combined buying power of its retailing membership to receive manufacturers’ best wholesale prices for the Hot Show, a members-only event. Members must wear their ATA badge to attend. ARRO members can also attend the Dealer Reception on Jan. 7 from 6 to 8:30 p.m. in rooms 233 to 235. Questions? Contact Deb Colgrove, ARRO’s administrative director and executive secretary, at (800) 234-7499 or deb@archeryretailers.com.
The NABA buying group provides its members the best wholesale prices manufacturers can offer. The NABA team pushed its Super Show to a later time to avoid other events. It will feature a new electronic ordering portal to make the process seamless. Retailers have until the end of the day to place orders, a departure from the traditional four-hour window at previous Super Shows. The event is for NABA members only, and they must wear their ATA badge to attend. Questions? Contact Kelly Kelly, NABA’s executive director, at (903) 675-2233 or kelly@naba-archery.com.
