As I sit here and reflect on the 2026 PBS Banquet As I sit here and reflect on the 2026 PBS Banquet in Indianapolis I am blown away with how great of an event it was. This was far from my first (St. Louis 2000) but probably my favorite to date. The Council, volunteers, and especially Harmony outdid themselves this year, a huge thank you to them for all their effort, it truly is appreciated.
The TBHOF induction was spectacular with a well deserving class of inductees. 
Of course my favorite part was making new friends and catching up with old ones! The quality of our membership is incomparable in character and authenticity to most organizations I’ve ever been a part of. 
I was absolutely gobsmacked and humbled to have won the Jerry Pierce Bowyer’s contest as there was some stiff competition from some amazing bowyers. A huge heartfelt thank you to everyone that voted for my submission! 
I can’t wait for Springfield; if I don’t catch you before then I’ll see you in 2 years!
