USA – -(Ammoland.com)- The North American Virtual Sportshow is the first of its kind. It’s a consumer show that was developed in a virtual, online world to give all outdoor enthusiasts the excitement of attending a Sportshow, but without all the travel expense.
Convenient access to wonderful new products and outdoor sports opportunities is what the North American Virtual Sport Show is all about.
David Gray, Sportshow president, said, “ As the North American Virtual Sportshow expanded to serve the hunting and shooting sports, we heard many good things about Honored American Veterans Afield (HAVA) and the mission it performs for our deserving veterans. We believe in what HAVA is doing and it is an honor for the Sportshow team to announce our support of HAVA. We are excited to have this opportunity to say to our Veterans, “thank you for your service to our country.”
“This is an outstanding show of support by the North American Virtual Sportshow for America’s disabled veterans as they work to develop confidence in the future,” said HAVA Chairman Tom Taylor. As HAVA continues serving disabled veterans on behalf of the sporting and outdoor industry, we are honored that more and more like-minded people are supporting our work to get these great Americans back outdoors to hunt and fish. We look forward to growing the internet auction by the Sportshow into an annual fundraiser for HAVA and having this effort play a large role in support of our mission for years to come.”
David went on to announce, “The world’s first digital sport show is planning the first digital internet auction for the benefit of HAVA. This digital auction will take place January 19 through 29, 2015. We will be announcing auction details on our website www.nasportshow.com the first of January. You will be able to access and join the auction on the Sportshow website, through the HAVA booth in the virtual Sportshow, or by registering on your smart phone. This virtual internet auction will present an opportunity for everyone to support HAVA and show appreciation for the service of our veterans.
The auction will be a fun event and all the proceeds are going to support and grow the HAVA mission.
