    Red White and Blue rendezvous memorial weekend Cairo NE

    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.

    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.

    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!

    I know Randy, fine marksman one of the best in the State. If I manage to out shoot him on a target or two it’s a good day for me.

    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.
