Boy howdy, did the United Bowhunters of Missouri have themselves a Rendezvous! The weather was great, the facilities were fantastic and the food was...dang, the food was off the charts! We had a huge turnout and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. It always warms my heart to see families doing an activity together and this event was crawling with families. There is one family, in particular, that has to show up in order for us to have a proper Rendezvous. Kerwin Crawford and his wife have identical triplet girls and they have been coming to this thing since those girls were a year or two old. These young ladies are now 13 and still enjoy flinging arrows with their old man. It don't get much better than that!
Here are some snapshots of the event:

This young man's family came from north of Topeka, KS to join us and he was the winner of the youth shoot-off.
