Save the date email has been sent. Please let me know if you didn't receive it. Flyer is done and will be posted soon. FB page will also go live this week.

With a couple of exceptions I haven't heard from anyone who is working to obtain sponsors or silent auction donations. Please help us out with this. It's very important. If you're not sure what to say or even who to ask I can help. Please don't let the same handful of folks do all the work.

New at Rendezvous this year is the addition of Reel Paddling Film Festival. It's gonna be great, and I want to say a special thanks to Ozark Outdoor for underwriting the entire cost of hosting it. Thanks Mr. Jim! If you want to attend RPFF at Rendezvous (you do) you have the option of purchasing your ticket at the gate or online via the Rendezvous tab. I hope someone uses the online option 'cause I spent some time (and lost some hair) figuring it out! I'm purty proud of myself.

Stay tuned.

What are the specific judging criteria and associated points for the Dutch oven cook off this year?

[Tim Eubanks]

Dishes are judged on taste. Not really a formal point system. We are not that sophisticated. Entries need to be a main dish or a dessert, one entry per cook.
Entries are to be cooked on-site in a Dutch Oven on charcoal. Prep work can be done in advance. Judging is at 6pm.
