School is back in session in the metro Atlanta area this week. September is still 4 weeks away. In all actuality, we’ve still got one more month of summer,but this week at Howard Brothers feels like we’re about to kick off a busy fall.

This weekend, the Forrest Wood Cup comes to Atlanta. Not familiar with it?

There will be a large expo that accompanies the weigh ins at the Gwinnett Civic center each day. Being in our backyard, this is an ideal place for us to hang out with the community that will be there.

Howard Brothers actually has a large presence at the expo this year. Not only will we be at the Exmark Booth and the Honda Outdoor Booth, we’ll have a large booth on our own in the expo hall and will be showing off the Big Green Egg and Traeger Grills. We’ll have knives from brands like Kershaw, Buck, Case and SOG. We’ll be having incredible deals on DMT diamond sharpening accessories.

The expo hall will be open Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 10:00am to 5:00pm each day. (August 9-11)
