St. Lawrence Center Mall. With fall fast approaching, the representatives at the St. Lawrence Center Mall held a two-day Fall Expo for everyone to enjoy. The last few years the St. Lawrence Mall has been working to re-invent itself with fun family activities with the sports complex, bumper cars, and glow-in-the-dark golf. The 2019 Fall Expo brought various amount of activities to do. Outside was a small petting zoo and a pony rides for the younger children.
Another event caught the attention of many attending were the archery and axe throwing. Axe throwing has been a popular pastime, but lately it's been re-gaining popularity. The Fall Expo brought Donald Burdek, the founder of the mobile company known as 'The Flying Axe'. Burdek has been in business for 3 years now and his mobile station allows him to travel to various locations and to be directly involved in teaching people how to throw an axe and 'bringing you a fun and safe experience' While not a competition, people lined up to learn about this new and thrilling hobby. It acted as a great introduction to something that Burdek is passionate about.
Also, at the Expo was 'God. Family. Hunting', billing themselves as "We are a family of 5 girls and 1 guy pursuing our passion: God, family and hunting". GFH set up a 3D pop-up archery where participants, both experienced and novice alike could take a shot at a wild pig, turkey, or deer with their own bow and arrow set or use one provided by GFH.
