Primitive Camping and . . .

Spent the weekend at our black powder muzzleloading club's Spring Rendezvous.  A weekend of primitive camping, cooking with cast iron over open fire, muzzleloading and knife and hawk throwing competitions. 

 This was my home-away-from-home for a few days.

I'm in the background timing the fire starting with flint and steel competition.

On Sunday morning we hold a fun shoot.  After picking partners, we send them out on the course to tackle some more unique challenges that involve teamwork.

It also takes teamwork to put one of these events on.  

John Maxwell writes, "Nothing of SIGNIFICANCE was ever achieved by an individual acting alone.  One of the most important factors to success is TEAMWORK.  Without a team, leaders rely solely on themselves and their own skills.  There's less room for growth, innovation, and collaboration."

We participate in a Rendezvous, in part, to learn about our past.  They are also great teachers of how to succeed in the present and the future.
