This event is the longest continuous running Family & Cultural Event. Anyone with a barebow and special blunt-tipped arrow (flu flu) may participate in Bogenschuetzenfest on Saturday, October 9th. The aim is to knock off parts of a styrofoam eagle mounted on top a 35' pole. Archers who knock off a body part will become members of ‘The Schuetzen Guilde of Archers’. On Sunday, October 10th, competitors can compete in the Running Boar Tournament, where the target is a replica of a wild boar travelling at approximately 20 km/h.
