Welcome from the Bushway!
In 1999 I attended my first KS-MO Fur Company Rendezvous. My son was old enough to graduate from Cub Scouts and this was the first Boy Scout event I had ever attended. I was so impressed with the activities offered, the excitement I saw in his eyes and the amazing cooperation between everyone involved that I was hooked on Boy Scouts from that moment on. 12 years later I am honored to serve as the Rendezvous Bushway and I want to welcome all Scouts, Scouters, Parents and Guests to this remarkable event.
“Rendezvous is in every sense of the word a gathering; a gathering of fellowship, adventure, skills and spirit. Rendezvous is the most anticipated scouting event of the year, not just for what can be done while you are there, but most importantly for what is felt inside and taken home with you when you leave.” (Read full text of “What Is Rendezvous”)
I hope to see you there!
