Annual Black Powder rendezvous memorial weekend Cairo Ne. Blackpowder shooting Sat and Sunday. Camping for primitive to modern in separate areas to accommodate all tastes. If you’re looking for something to do this is a good one. Traders tents for goods and events for kids of all ages.
I haven't been there in years, need to bring my Grandson. Enjoyed having Strinz and the other 'ladies' cook breakfast! It is a really good time! hc18flyer
Still a great breakfast every morning. Unfortunately Strinz is no longer with us. But stlll a significant assemblage of characters. Every one is welcome. Period dress encouraged but no one looks down on modern clothing. Get a fair number of folks that make a day trip and see the sights. Hope you can make it.
Patched round ball blackpowder rifle, pistol, knife and hawk, primitive archery competition . Categories for men, woman and JR shooters. Prizes in “traders bucks” to spend with traders. Folks setting up camp already this weekend.
A friend asked 'How long do they serve breakfast?' Hoping to make it, dang high school kids are over committed! hc18flyer
I’m usually 1st in line at dawn and off to the range thinking 8:30 or 9 ish end. Maybe a bit longer.
My Grandson and I are planning on shooting tomorrow at R, W, and Blue. Maybe we'll bump into you, be wearing a blue shirt, if it still fits! Shootin a Lyman Great Plains.
Super! I’ll have a grey hat w turkey feather. Hope to meet you. Tim
Had a fine day at Red, White, and Blue today. I was lucky to hit into the black, but my Grandson collected some Traders Bucks' Enjoyed visiting with some fine folk at the Rondyvoo. We'll be back! hc18flyer
My cousin and his family are there this weekend. I was lucky enough to be there in 2005. Had a great time, but can't seem to make it there at the right time! I was just in York Nebraska on the 16th and 17th, but couldn't stay!!
Hope y'all have a great weekend, and say hello to all the Collinghams there!

Randy on the firing line. His daughter-in-law took the picture.
I guarantee that's not a "pose" and he most likely had no idea that she was taking a picture!
Yup in the heat of competition. Shooting his Ruger stainless Old Army at 25yrds. I was on the line shooting my T/C Patriot.45 at the same relay almost next to Randy. I beat him at 25 and he beat me at 50.Quote:

Just talked to Randy. I'm so disappointed that I won't be there, but of course - God willing! - he will be. That is such a fun weekend!
Maybe I can make it next year??
Sorry you’re going to miss this year. It is a major social event of the year! More fun than a new puppy.Quote:
