The Fur Tables had a better showing than expected but still had a lower than average turnout than other years.

Due to the mild winter and the cancellations of flights this season, only 99 trappers came to Thompson for the Fur Tables.

Organizer Lane Boles says it was more than he expected but that it was still down from most years but overall says the event was a success.

$166,928 was exchanged during the two day event.

Boles said that another positive from the event was that 200 children from schools across the city  came down to learn about the Fur Tables.
