Northwest Georgia Swap day at TSC

So last weekend I went to a "trade day" at a local Tractor Supply Co.
When I called, they said it was for local small businesses and homesteaders/farmers to come and set up to sell or trade.

I loaded up a few spare roosters, some fantail pigeons, and an old hen who was being picked on by everyone.

Sold the hen and some fantails, and started thinking..."Wonder if the TSC closest to me does this?"
So I called them

They said they wanted to do one, but didn't know if there was any interest.
They were specifically looking at doing something in January some time, although they would be glad to work with me or anyone else on a date. Even offered to let just me set up if I wanted, but I think that a larger crowd would be better.

For those in the area close enough, would you be interested in participating in a swap/sale in Cartersville? It is just a couple miles off of I75.

What time of year would you think this would work best? Spring? When will you have chicks to sell/trade?
I would love to have more info to offer TSC as far as negotiating a time that might work for more people.

I'm going to ask for a date in March, so hopefully we won't freeze while sitting outside.
Plus that will give me a chance to have baby chicks

I am planning to go to the Trion Livestock auction on Jan 1 at 7pm. So far I haven't brought anything home in my two visits there.
